Colin,

Use TRANSFORM(Projnum, "####"). This will right justify it.

BTW, you need a non-proportional font. The easiest way I know of to determine if a font is not proportional is to create a label on a form with one chracter (Autosize needs to be .T.), say "X", note the width, then change it to "I". If the widths are the same, it's a non-proportional font. Otherwise, it ain't.

hth,
