SMTP Email formatting question

Djou2424

I'm trying to format the body of an html email using codeunit 400, AppendBody function to add TAB between variables

The body should look like this:
A1 B1 C1
A2 B2 C2
A3 B3 C3

But instead, it looks like
A1 B1 C1
A2 B2 C2
A3 B3 C3

No matter what I do, it only put a space between the variable, no tab.
I tried by adding it like A + ' ' + B + ' ' + C

or setting a char variable
TABchar := 9;
A + format(TABchar) + B + format(TABchar) + C

What am I doing wrong?

Looks the same to me.

If you send a html-mail, why don't you use html-code to format the body of your mail?

You can write:

<table>
  <tr>
    <td>row 1, col1</td>
    <td>row 1, col 2</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>row 2, col1</td>
    <td>row 2, col 2</td>
  </tr>
</table>

to have a table-structure. See http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_tables.asp for more info about the table-tags.
