Lost Formatting

Peter or anybody else.
I commonly port an assembly program from one computer to another. It seems that this often leads to losing the formatting of comments.
Opening·a program that was previously on a different computer, with the comments lined up all nice and pretty (starting in same column), some of the comments will no longer be lined up.
This is just a minor annoyance more than anything else, but I am curious what might be happening.
Any ideas?
Does anybody else experience this?

Yeah, you have different tab settings on the IDEs in the different computers. Assuming you are always using the SX-Key IDE on all your machines, check the "Editor" category, and look at the values for "Tab Size." I bet they are different on your different machines. If you are editing on a different text editor on one machine, and the SX-Key IDE on another, the same problem is happening, but you need to check the tab settings on that external editor as well.
The Devil is in the details...
Thanks, PeterM
I will check the tab settings and post my findings.
