  Hi,
  You could do this:
  (1) Create a function in your report (in VS):

  Public Function LeaderDots (ByVal Text as String, ByVal PadLength as integer) as String
    Dim Pad as Char
    Pad = Convert.ToChar(".")
    Return Text.PadRight(PadLength, Pad)
  End Function
  

  
  (2) place the value you want to show in a textbox
  
  (3) Change the expression of the textbox like this:

  =Code.LeaderDots ( YourValue , 100 )
  

  where YourValue is the original value, and 100 is the padded length you want in the resulting string (set this to a high value).
  
  (4) set the 'CanGrow' property of the textbox to False

  So, we have to add some VB code to accomplish this
  Thanks a lot
