Hi All,

        Need some help here.  I have to format a line with each piece of the line
being a fixed set of characters in length, wether its a mix of spaces and
letters, or all letters.  Here's an example of the line:

06?4111111111111111ABDALAR        M333 N COUNTRY CLUB  CANTON       DD88888

        In this file, for instance, CANTON's space on the line has a length of 13
characters.  If 'CANTON' is not 13, I have to fill with spaces.  Is there
some sort of report formatting functions or osmething I can look at to lay
out the structure of the line and then drop in variables to it and have the
line format itself w/o me having to calculate the length of each variable
and put spaces at the end accordingly?  I've tried search, but I don't have
a clue what I am really looking for.  Help is appreciate.

-Dan Joseph
