Hi Steve,
Try using :

declare
a varchar2(20):='JAI';
begin
dbms_output.put_line(chr(9)||a);
end;

Regards
Jai

Good afternoon,

Some time ago there was a response to the question of how to get leading spaces to display when using dbms_output.put_line.

I have tried -
dbms_output.put_line(' '||tabrec.table_name);

but do not get the leading spaces.

When someone mentioned how to do this I said "of course" but naturally have forgotten the technique.

Can some one share?

Thanks folks...
