I am doing windows printing through VB6 and the font used is "Book Antiqua". It is number format and I want to right align it.

I used Rset and format function but it is either fornatting to left or center.

Hello Averyone,

Any body can solve my problem. I am doing windows printing through VB6 and the font used is "Book Antiqua". It is number format and I want to right align it.
I used Rset and format function but it is either fornatting to left or center.

so please provide me some solution for that.

Thanks

dear,

I have the same results in a test project with the code=

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim STR30 As String
   STR30 = "01234567890123456789012345678901234567890123"
   RSet STR30 = Text1.Text
   Text2.Text = STR30
End Sub

when I place a space in the string then I see that for the font "Book Antiqua", the text is "in the center" (not = centered !!!).

when I use the font Fixedsys, then the text is on the right! (not = right allined !)

Conclusion:
- the font "Book Antiqua" has spaces of 1/2 char !
- use a font in which the space = 1 char

dear,

You can also calculate the required spaces and adapt each time the string-var. (see attachment).
