The problem is that the size (number of text characters) of the "chunk of text" that is tab delimited varies all over the place. Is there any way to set-up/configure a text box that will only allow for one and only one "chunk of text" within it? In other words, every time there is a tab, I want the text to jump to the next text box. This would save considerably on my editing time.
