Fixed Width characters

I'm having a problem with the display of data in a list box (Win32Lib). The data
is imported from a DOS .txt file, in
which the data is correctly aligned  in columns. When the data is imported
(intact except the the trailing line-feed),
its display within the list box is not aligned well, but appears ragged.

Recently David Cuny, in response to a question, mention 'fixed width' characters

I suspect that this may also be the problem I'm having. The font in use is
 Courier 10 pt.  via
          setFont(Win,"Courier",10,1)

Can someone tell me the names of a few fixed width fonts, so I can try them?

Thanks.

Regards,

Jim
