This is because calling functions is not allowed when defining a constant
value.
In your case, you have to use a string containing your character using an
escape code :
Private Const $TB As String = "\x09" 'Contains the ASCII character 9
Or, even better in your case :
Private Const $TB As String = "\t" 'Contains the TAB character (ASCII 9)
But I agree that the error message is not very clear ...
