I'd use something like: <@VAR local$Len 15> <@VAR local$Spaces " ">
<@LEFT "<@VAR local$MyString><@VAR local$Spaces>" <@VAR local$Len>> Of course, browsers ignore repeating spaces, so you'd also need to: <@REPLACE STR="<@VAR foo$bar>" FINDSTR=" " REPLACESTR=" '"> Jon -----Original Message----- From: Web Dude [mailto:webdude@;rsdigitalmedia.com] Sent: 05 November 2002 1:43 To: Multiple recipients of list witango-talk Subject: Witango-Talk: String Length Is there a way to force spaces at the end of a <@COLUMN ""> returned from a search? And if the number of charaters exceeds 28, to trim the string? In other words, IF I wanted the length of the return to always be 28 characters... Example.... <@ROWS> (<@COLUMN "Products.Name">)<br> </@ROWS> (brackets are added to show the length of the string) would return the following... (Golf Clubs ) (Golf Tees ) (NEW Parker White Teeshirt fo) (Kensington White Shirt ) (Parker Pen ) (NEW White Womens Fleece Hand) I know I can use <@substring> or the <@trim>s to truncate if the length is over 28 charaters, but how about if it is under 28 characters?
