Enabling Tab in richtextbox

[Malfunction]

Smiple task:

I want my rtb to catch the tab key and actually add a "tab" to it's text instead of deactivating itself.

 

I set tabstop to false but that only prevents the rtb being activated by tab not being deactivated.

 

Maybe the next problem is a result of the rtb being deactivated by tab:

 

protected override void OnKeyUp(KeyEventArgs e)

{

MessageBox.Show(e.KeyCode.ToString());

base.OnKeyUp (e);

}

 

This will give me the name of every key but the tab key.

 

If I get that to work (prevent the rtb from being disabled) how do I add the tab to the rtb's text? (couldn't find the escape sequence)

 

Or did I miss a simple property that enables tabs?
