Question Tab Unsupported in DisplayBarcode Field

I am attempting to create barcodes using the DisplayBarcode field which would contain a tab. I am using CODE128 which supports all 128 ASCII characters, but I keep getting the 'Data contains unsupported character(s)' error whenever I try and put a tab in there.

I have tried both
Code:
{ DISPLAYBARCODE "123→4" CODE128 }
(where → is a tab)
and
Code:
{ DISPLAYBARCODE "123{ SYMBOL 9 }4" CODE128 }
Has anyone successfully encoded a tab or other ASCII control characters using DisplayBarcode and Code 128? Any ideas?
