Any help would be appreciated. A tab advances the output position to the next tab stop, but there's no universal standard for where those tab stops are, although they're commonly at every 8 characters, assuming a monospaced (fixed-width) font. In your example, if the tabs are at every 8 characters then you'll get: | | <= The tab positions user1 data1 username2 data2 user3 data3 "username2" has already passed the first tab, so it advances to the second tab, causing the misalignment. The simplest solution, if you're using a monospaced font, is to use spaces instead. Find the width of the first column (the longest entry in the first column is 9 characters) and then pad all of the first entries with spaces to that width (use string formatting or the .just method) when outputting each line. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Is there any way to achieve this? Left-alignment is achieved by using a negative width. You can use the locale module to generate thousands-separated numeric string representations: from locale import * setlocale(LC_ALL, '') # locale is otherwise 'C' 'en_US.UTF-8' locale.format(%12.3f, 123456.789, grouping=False) ' 123456.789' locale.format(%12.3f, 123456.789, grouping=True) ' 123,456.789' regards Steve -- Steve Holden +1 571 484 6266 +1 800 494 3119 See PyCon Talks from Atlanta 2010 http://pycon.blip.tv/ Holden Web LLC http://www.holdenweb.com/ UPCOMING EVENTS:http://holdenweb.eventbrite.com/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
