Aligning text using Printer.print

Good day

I would like to write a code which will aprropriately align text under each heading. For example I have columns Name, Surname and Comments, when the text is long it is not correctly aligned. The program prints a report with user names and their comments. This is the code I have :

Printer.Print "Author"; Spc(30); "Name"; Spc(30); "Notes" - print headings and underline them

Printer.Print "---------"; Spc(30); "--------"; Spc(30); "--------"

For i = 1 To mLngNumOfNotes

' Print Notes

Printer.Print Name(i); Spc(28); Surname(i); Spc(15); Comment(i)
Printer.Print 'Print empty line

Next i

Thank you

I have used the following to allign currency

tmpL=len(stringX)
printer.print tab(100-tmpL);stringX

usually works quite well.
Maybe someone will give a better work around.

If you want real alignment you must print by setting the .CurrentX and .CurrentY.

Then you also have access to Printer.TextWidth() that will tell you how "large" something is so you can do real left and right alignment of your print.
