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 > If you are using fixed width characters to print, you can use this routine > to > convert tabs into spaces:. ... 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
