Two questions: Does anyone out there know how to justify text in a list box? Like this: ------------------------------ |Item one 05/02/91 | Any suggestions? My problem is that |Another item 05/02/91 | everything is proportianally spaced. |I wan't this 05/02/91| |And this 05/02/91| | | ------------------------------ Also, are there any generic routines out there for validating a numeric in a one line edit window? If the user enters a non-numeric character, I want the bad character(s) to be highlighted and the cursor placed at the beginning. This is a common method used by applications, but I'm not sure of the best way to do it. Thanks, Brett A. Morrison bam@cs.arizona.edu

I always used the default tab stops but these can be set by sending the LB_SETTABSTOPS message to the dialog box. For information, see the SDK Reference Book 1 page 6-44 and the SDK Reference Book 2 page 8-43. >Thanks, > >Brett A. Morrison >bam@cs.arizona.edu - Keith ----- Keith.Shafer@SanDiegoCA.NCR.COM
