= SUMMARY =

In Microsoft Word versions 5.00 and 5.50, saving documents as Text-only-with-line-breaks (version 5.00) or Text Only w/Breaks (version 5.50) will convert tab characters in the document to spaces.

Tabs will remain tab characters and will not be converted to spaces if the file is saved as Text-only (version 5.00) or Text Only (version 5.50). When saving a file as Text-only-with-line-breaks or Text Only w/Breaks, Word will convert paragraph formatting, such as indents and tabs, to spaces.
