=left(a1&rept(" ",18),18)

This will add spaced at the end

if you want spaces in front
=right(rept(" ",18)&a1,18)

Hi all again

I need the address to be 18 characters long i.e. if the address is over 18
characters then chop it, if its under, then add spaces

Is this possible?

Thanks as always

Derek
