Aligning text under Visual Studio code

How to align/indent text under Visual Studio 2012, to achieve the below:

Original code

SomeThing = A + B + C
SomeLongerThing = D + E + F

Organized code

SomeThing          = A + B + C
SomeLongerThing    = D + E + F

If I try to hit Tab button on keyboard to add indentation, Visual Studio automatically squeezes the code back to the orignial position (as shown in the Original code above).

This is part of the pretty listing feature of VS. See Tools -> Options ... -> Text Editor -> Basic -> VB Specific -> Checkbox "Pretty listing (reformatting) of code".
