Default Inserting a Backspace

Hello,

I am trying to insert a backspace character into a word doc.

I am using an old sage accounts programme that generates plain text files, these files contain fixed length fields which I need to use on the same line of text.

When I was printing them off, I used the "control H" to backspace as many times as I wished to get the text into the correct position. I now need to import this file into Word, and overlay it on another document as a text box. Unfortunately this backspace does not work in Word.

Is there any way I can recreate this in my original text file.

Many thanks in advance

The Swerv
