I am trying to add spacing to align text in between two strings vars without using " " to do so
Trying to get the text to look like this, with the second column being aligned.
Location: 10-10-10-10 Revision: 1 District: Tower Date: May 16, 2012 User: LOD Time: 10:15
Currently have it coded like this, just using spaces…
"Location: " + Location + " Revision: " + Revision + 'n'
I tried working with string.rjust & srting.ljust but to no avail.
Suggestions?

You should be able to use the format method:
"Location: {0:20} Revision {1}".format(Location, Revision)
You will have to figure out the format length for each line depending on the length of the label. The User line will need a wider format width than the Location or District lines.
