Rocky,

I would go for a simplyfied B as option during transfer. 

Translate TABs to blanks - if not set, translate the X'09' to X'05' 
and not do tricky extras with the edit.

The way I see it is: the tabs were inserted by some editor, because it
had a vision to what column the data should be aligned to when
displayed (i.e. 10 16 35 for assembler). But this setting is only known
to the editor that did this and it should therefor be removed by the
editor that did this. 

This inserting of tabs was a way to save storage space- but does
this still make sense. Okay the editor you use does it- but would it
hurt much if you set it to not do that?

>> My version of XEDIT works the same way. No tabs.

What version is this? regular XEDIT has SET TAB n n n - but you are
right: this does not expand tabs that are in the
input character-stream.
