Peter Mathew-------------[2000]-----[200]
Mathew-------------------[1000]-----[2]
Thomas John Mathew-------[200]------[5]
James John---------------[500]------[6]
"----" means space between name and that number. consider "---" as space. i don't need to dispaly "----". instead of "---" i need space in listbox between each items.
i gave "----" for you to understand the format. because when i gave the sapce and save the post, its not showing those space.

This is the code i'm using to display items inside listbox. i'm taking values from different tables and sorting that and display it to ListBox.
Code:
Dim pArray As New ArrayList
Dim myConnection As New OleDbConnection(strConn)
myConnection.Open()
Dim schemaTable As DataTable
'This will get all the table names from Database to DataTable
schemaTable = myConnection.GetOleDbSchemaTable(OleDb.OleDbSchemaGuid.Tables, New Object() {Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, "TABLE"})
'Dim Table1 As DataTable = New DataTable("Orders")
Table1 = New DataTable("Orders")
Dim Row As DataRow
Dim Description As DataColumn = New DataColumn("Description")
Table1.Columns.Add(Description)
Dim Group As DataColumn = New DataColumn("Group")
Group.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.Int32")
Table1.Columns.Add(Group)
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To schemaTable.Rows.Count - 1
Dim NotInArray As Boolean = True
'Taking Each Table Name from DataTable
Dim pTableName As String = schemaTable.Rows(i)!TABLE_NAME.ToString
'Checking the table names Starts with "MG"
If Microsoft.VisualBasic.Left(pTableName, 2) = "MG"
Dim strSQL As String = "Select Description, Group, pl1 from " & pTableName & " where [Group] <> 0"
Dim myCommand As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand(strSQL, myConnection)
Dim myReader As OleDbDataReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader
While myReader.Read
Row = Table1.NewRow()
Row("Description") = Trim(myReader(0)) & " [" & myReader(1) & "]" & " [" & myReader(2) & "]"
Table1.Rows.Add(Row)
End If
End While
myReader.Close()
End If
Next
myConnection.Close()
Dim objDataView As New DataView(Table1)
objDataView.Sort = "Description ASC"
ListBox1.DataSource = objDataView
ListBox1.DisplayMember = "Description"
ListBox1.ValueMember = "Group"
ListBox1.SelectedValue = ""
if you have anyidea how to align this please help me. and if you can provide an example that will be great helpful for me.
thanks in advance.
