If you want to /replace/ tabs with spaces:

"Tools" -> "Options..." -> "Text editor" -> "Basic" -> "Tabstops" -> (o)
"Insert spaces".

If you want to /hide/ tabs and spaces:

Right-click the toolbar, choose "Customize...", on the "Commands" tab choose
"Edit" -> "Toggle visual area" (translated from the German version of
VS.NET), drag the command onto the toolbar.

'Toggle Visual Space' is what it's called in the English VS, fyi.

Thank you for making me aware of that. The German translation was not very
clear about what the command does, and my translation made it even more
unclear.
