ofcourse no " " is not a number so you can not multiply it by 6 you can use a for loop //identify the number of spaces you want by assigning it to count int count = 6; String str; for( int i = 0; i < count; i++) { str += " "; }

try.......... System.Text.StringBuilder s=new System.Text.StringBuilder(); s.Append("a"); s.Append(" ", CountNumber); s.Append("b");

String.PadRight[^] So it'll be something like str = str.PadRight(str.Length + 6).

There is a constructor for the string class that you can use: int count = 6; string spaces = new String(' ', count);

you could create a FakeString class. add implicit casts between FakeString and String and also overload String * int, string *long. not forgetting to overload int * String and long * String. It doesn't sound worth it in this instance but if " " was of type vector for instance, it might well be. Russ

int count = 6; char space = ' '; StringBuilder st = new StringBuilder("Your String"); st.Append(space, count);
