The column width of a list box is 5
characters for each tab.
How can I set the width of the columns in a
listbox to be something like
15 char, 5 char, 10 char.
Thanks..

Maybe the "TABSTOPS" property would help you.

As an addendum to Richard's comment it is worth noting that the primary definition is correct and the second is a little misleading. That is to say, you don't set pixels between tabs, but a distance from the left side of the box - and you have to use pixels, so in your case values closer to ten times bigger are in order!

Tabstops property is not listed as a property
for list boxes in "Which Controls Support Which Properties?"

Steve,
Thank you for the heads up. Did you find TABSTOPS in the Properties Chapter of the Prrogrammer's Reference in the Help?

Sean,
Also, from debugger "View", "Properties" for the list box,
the "Tabstops" property does not appear.

Steve,
Not all properties are exposed in the Form Designer. TABSTOPS just happens to be one that can only be set programmatically.

Yes, but I would think the debugger view
(debugger "View", "Properties" for the list box,
the "Tabstops" property does not appear.)
would show all properties.
