Hi,

I am binding values to list box but stirng not showing in proper format.

ex my strings like

abc 10
abcd 20
asdfas 30

I made fixed length to first string that is 30 using pading

C#

str1.PadRight(30) + str2.PadRight(2)

then also I am getting values like that

abc 10
abcd 20
asdfas 30

Is that Padding done before Binding?

Yes just before

can you show that code? Some lines before and after the Pad's

to.areeb 27-Jun-12 6:00am

sItem = strName.Trim.PadRight(30) & Space(3) & .StrCode.Trim.PadRight(3)

listbox1.items.add(sItem)

strName and StrCode coming from database

tried something like:

sItem = string.Format("{0} {1}", strName.PadRight(30), StrCode.PadRight(3));

if it still gives the same error it might be possiblethat the Items.Add() does a TRIM() in the background!

Solution 1

IF you want to digit below the other in same potion along x-axis then first calulate length of first string and using padding.padsding value derive by certain value - length of string
eg

str1.PadRight(30-str1.length)

I hope it will work
