Is anyone aware of some way to get the EditTable control to display chars that are all the same width so that all chars in cells above and below line up to each other exactly? Most fonts have chars that are a different width to each other, but fonts such as "Courier New" and "Verdana" display chars that are exactly the same width to each other. However, it seems all fonts in the EditTable control are always displayed with different widths.

Thanks for any help!

Have you tried just setting the Edit Table Font to Courier or similar on the Properties menu? It works here.

Yes I have tried different fonts and still have the same problem. I don't know if it makes any difference, but I'm using WinXP and OI7.1.1. And I'm using the Properties-]Font from the Form Designer. Even Revelation tech couldn't get it to work and said they are pretty sure it is not doable and suggested that I post the question here. If you know of some settings, etc of some way to get this to work, I'd really really appreciate it.

Just to be sure I explained the problem I'm having: If you have one column of cells in an EditTable and each cell has the first three letters of the day (SUN, MON, TUE, etc), the N in SUN is exactly over the N in MON and the N in MON is exactly over the E.

Todd,

We do allow for monospaced fonts within the edittable. We ran two separate tests, one using a font of "COURIER NEW" and the other using "LUCIDA CONSOLE" and the data that was displayed monospaced.

The code that was used:

days=SUN":@vm:"MON":@vm:"TUE":@vm:"WED":@vm:"THU":@vm:"FRI":@vm:"SAT"

x=Set_Property(@window:".TABLE_1","DEFPROP",days)

There were no problems. Each letter within the table was aligned.

Sean

Thanks!
