title: How to use TAB as column separator in SQLCMD
body: <p>SQLCMD supports the -s parameter to specify the column separator, but I couldn't figure how how to represent the tab (CHAR(9)) character.  I have tried the following but both don't work:</p>
  
  <pre><code>sqlcmd -S ServerName -E -Q"select * from mytable" -s"\t" -o results.txt
  sqlcmd -S ServerName -E -Q"select * from mytable" -s'\t' -o results.txt
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any ideas how to do this in SQLCMD?    </p>
