verticle justification using tables????

I have an application where I am using tables so the user can enter information. I want the text entries to be centered vertically and horizontally. I know you can choose multiline input to get vertical justification then chose center justification from the pull down menu. This will not work, I dont want to count on the user to put the input in the center of a multi line cell. So...Can I vertically and horizontally justify a cell in a LabView table????

You are right about the table...I could not find a workaround either. I guess that you could allow the user to type anywhere in the cell and then formating it to be in the center. If three lines are visable, then you make sure there is a \r\n before the string and two \r\n afterwards with some fancy parsing.

I tried this too and while horizonatal centering was easy, could not do it vertically. Maybe you could try an ActiveX container on the panel and put an Excel Spreadsheet in it. It would be more work to get the data out of the spreadsheet but it might give you the formatting options you want.
