I've got a problem with my version of the welcome message,
which I wrote on a UNIX-type system and sent off to my list
manager. The problem is that in certain parts of the message
all of the blanks are scrunched out! Here's an example...
 
What I want it to look like:
 
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
DATABASE PART
 
Name:
Address:
City/State:
Country:
Zip:
Phone:
Birthday:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
 
And here's what it comes out like after VM gets hold of it:
 
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
* * * DATABASE PART * * * * Name: * * Address: * * City/State: * * Country: * *
Zip:      *      *      Phone:      *     *      Birthday:      *      *      *
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
 
Does anybody know how to fix this?
Thanks!
