    Fixed character column width

    Hi,
    I need to fix column widths to hold a specific number of characters - ie no more than 18 for 1 and min 6 - max 8 for another. is it possible to do this?
    thanks

    Welcome to the forum.

    Yes, but you need to use a fixed-pitch font (Courier, Consolas, ...) for Style Normal, and the set the column widths as you wish.
