Right now when I hit tab it adds 4 spaces. I would rather it act like the old Visual Interdev and add an actual tab character in there. Anyone know how to do that? Is there an option or preference somewhere I can set to have it function like that? I have been unable to find anything in scouring the menus.

Thanks,

Jeez nevermind. I tried one last Google search and found an answer that pointed me in the right direction.

For anyone curious about the solution, here is what I did:

Tools - Options - Text Editor - All Languages - Tabs

Check the Keep Tabs radio button.
