The following works for me...

tab = string (9B)

column1 = [ 1, 2, 3, 4]
column2 = [10, 20, 30, 40]
tabcolumn = make_array (n_elements (column1), value = tab)

status = dc_write_fixed ('testc.dat', /column, $
column1, tabcolumn, column2, format='%d%s%d')

status = dc_write_fixed ('testf.dat', /column, $
column1, tabcolumn, column2, format='(i1, a, i2)')

(Unfortunately, PVWave will not recognize '%d\t%d' in the C-like way,
but will just write out the literal character pair or a backslash
followed by a lower-case t.)

Hope this helps
