Hello, a=.'abc';'def';'g';'hijkl';'mn' b=.'xyzxyz';'xyz';'xyz';'xyzxyz';'xyzxyzxyz' a,.b You see the table. What I want instead is, something like, ||abc ||xyzxyz || ||def ||xyz || ||g ||xyz || ||hijkl||xyzxyz || ||mn ||xyzxyzxyz|| (Note that the vertical lines should all align along the columns when displayed with fixed-width fonts) Maybe something like "%10s" string formatting in C's printf and its friends would be useful for these kinds of problems. (What I actually did for this particular problem was string-fy the table result of ,. and transforming the result into what I expect ; however, I'd love to see more general and less quirky approaches). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
