It would greatly enhance the GUI features because it would allow you to
display data in rows and columns.

Possibly having columns, being able to sort columns even?

I will add the SysListView32 control type to the list, though it might be a while since there are quite a few other control types (such as the tab control) that have a higher priority. Thanks.

In the meantime, you probably already know that you can use tabs in a Text control or Edit control to due some rudimentary columns. You could also use a fixed-width font such as Lucida Console or Courier New so that spaces can be used to set up columns.

For control types: ListBox, ComboBox where selection of an item is possible TAB doesn't work apparently, thats one reason I asked about the grid control.

Is it a bug?
I tried (%A_TAB% or `t) but the text just enteres a small square

Only certain types of controls such as text and edit will accept tabs. Others will display the small square you mentioned.

In case it's of use, I just tested example of having tabs in an edit and it seems okay:
gui, add, edit, r3 w500 vMyEdit, field1`tfield2`tfield3

I'm planning to add the ability to have custom tabstops inside an edit control. Currently, the tabstops are always in default positions.
