Hi Mark,
Actually I had the font Courier New before and after I read your answer I tried to change the font of those fields to see the differences. Your suggestion is a super idea! Now I use the font Arial and those fields are displayed very pretty(just like I want).
Thank you very much for your help.
Diane.
