Ive created a Flash movie that lets users click a button, which then loads a certain text file into the movie via the dynamic text boxes.

I neatly align the text using tab in notepad or word pad or whatever, (its a results golf movie) so I have position, name, score as the columns, its all aligned correctly in the text file, then when I check in the full screen movie, it isn't aligned, any idea if I can get the two to coincide with each other?

It would be of a great help to be able to do so, then I dont have to keep checking every time I write a new line of results or history.
 
post the text file and i will try to fix it

tabs in text files dont translate into tabs in flash files etc

however work arounds abound and as its for a purpose so close to my heart be assured it shall be solved

tiger who?




 
Well Ive managed to get it to align correctly, by tabbing less/more on various lines, so thanks for the offer anyway, I just wondered for future added results if it was possible without having to keep checking in the Flash file, not to worry, it looks fine now anyway, thanks again.
