Is this in an email or a screen field? You have to remember that the size of each character is different in the standard (proportional spaced) fonts. It sounds like you are needing to use a fixed width font like Courier New (where all characters are the same width).

We are getting the data in the below format: Ex: Item Description : Box for Pickup Box for Pickup : 11 Building : F Floor and room number : 11 Actually in the above example the length of the data before ":" at all the places is having the same length but the alignment is improper. Kindly suggest a workaround.
