Hi Kafila,

Your function works fine. It does create and return
multiple spaces.

         Hi Jeff,
       
        Thanx for the reply.I have tried that already. After I build the

string with  , the problem is , later on I'm not able to remove
those
        spaces from the string after the user selects it from the
dropdown.eg

        string: '5555        A'
        I'm not able to remove the spaces out of the returned string
with the usual functions (Instr,Trim) functions.

        Thanks.

You will need to build a return string that contains  "noOfSpaces" * the

HTML space character " "

Hi,

I have a question in VB Scripting.I have a String 'part no' and a string


'rev'

now based on a calculation I have to put spaces between part no and rev
before I put it in my Drop down.Attached is the code that does that:

<%Function CreateSpaces(partno,rev)
dim strLength,I dim totallength
dim noOfSpaces
totallength =3D 25
strLength=3DLen(partno) + Len(rev)
noOfSpaces =3D totallength-strLength
CreateSpaces =3D partno & Space(noOfSpaces) & rev
end function %>

This is the attached function.The problem is when the function returns I


have only one space in the returned String.Why doesn't it attach more
than one space?

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
