Thanks for the tip. All the suggestions worked. I still have my
original problem. I am trying to copy my data from Excel into MS
Outlook in plain text mode, and I just can't get the columns to
line-up. I thought that if I made the columns the same size by
appending spaces at the end, it would help.

between the 2. It appears that when I copy from Excel and paste into
Outlook, it inserts TABs instead of spaces.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
