Multi Column Select

[Norman55]

I am trying to make a select box have 2 values from a RecordSet
i have managed to do this but i am having trouble spacing the columns evenly

i have tried to force the length of the first column but can only do this by inserting a chacator not spaces? Can anybody help me put spaces in or point me in a different direction.

Group=mid(myRS("title"),4,50)
Des =myRs("Description")

length = len(group)
MaxLength = "15"
Result = maxlength - length

Response.Write "<option value = '" & title & "'>"
Response.Write Group
response.Write string(result,"*")
response.Write des

Did you try using a non-blank space?

response.Write string(result,"&nbsp;")

Try using &nbsp;'s and set the font using CSS to a monospace font:

<%
Dim arr: arr = Array("red","blue","green");
Dim i

Response.Write "<select name=""selColor"" style=""font-family: monospace;"">"
For i = 0 to UBound(arr)
   Response.Write "<option>"
   Response.Write Replace(Left(arr(i) & String(20," "),20)," ","&nbsp;")
   Response.Write i
   Response.Write "</option>"
Next
Response.Write "</select>"

I apologize for any syntactical error, been writing more PHP and C# recently than VBScript.
