How To create fixed column formatting

[terry]

Dear Colleagues

I am trying to create a field with a fixed column format.

In VB6 I would:

Dim Field1 as string * 2
Dim Field2 as string * 4
Dim Field3 as string * 2

for a field with fixed column, 8 chars in width.

How do I do this in VB.NET 2003??

Do you not have online help with your version?

VBFixedString(1 5)Public FirstName As String
