Hello,

we're working on generating customer invoices using a text file as a template, then inserting the various invoice data(see below - Current View & Desired View). I've been trying to come up with a solution to maintain the dollar amounts column inline with each other, but as each line is slightly different in lenght, it's hard to maintain the amount columns inline with each other. We've tried variations format controls within the template, but when we insert the data into the template dynamically, the format isn't maintained. Is there a workable solution of doing this ?
