Is it possible to have a dot leader on a report such as is available in Microsoft Word. I want each line to format like this:
Code:
John Jones......................770.123.4567
Fred Fredricks..................404.321.7654
Sam Smith.......................678.765.4321
For reasons I won't go into it would be cumbersome to use Word Mail Merge.

there are several ways to accomplish this, but whatever way you chose be sure to remember that for things to line up properly, you will have to use a typewriter type font...something where all the characters are all the same size.

I don't think Mr. Lebans would limit your use to a fixed space font. His solutions are generally much more elegant.
