padding a string with spaces

[Clint1000]

How do you pad a string w spaces using "Format into a string" w/o typing /s/s/s/s/s for say 5 spaces ?

Hi Clint,

this way:

If you need PASS to be left justified with the spaces after, then the format string would be %-8s

[Clint1000]

what about between the Lower limit and upper limit and the upper limit and test value??  Do I put a empty string on the format into a string then use the %5s??

[RavensFan]

Yes

You really should mark Gerd's message #2 as the solution and not mine.  He presented the idea of how to do it.  All I did was answer a couple followup questions you had.
