<B>TAB Tab to a Specified Position</B>
<B>PRINT</B> <B>TAB</B>(<U>column</U>)
Moves to a specified print position. May be used in conjunction with
PRINT, LPRINT, and PRINT #.
<U>column</U> A numeric expression.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
<B>Notes:</B> If the current print (or screen) position is already to
the right of <U>column</U>, TAB moves to position <U>column</U> on the
next line.
If <U>column</U> is larger than the width of output device,
TAB(<U>column</U>) moves to <U>column</U> MOD <U>width</U>.
If <U>column</U> is less than 1, TAB(<U>column</U>) is treated as
TAB(1).
If the TAB function comes at the end of a list of data
items in a PRINT statement, BASIC behaves as if the PRINT
statement were terminated by a semicolon; it suppresses
the usual carriage return and line feed.
