Hi Karen.

I think you will just have to do that manually like this:-

qtwt . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . .

I am not aware that there is any other way to do it.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Thanks.

right click the cell / Format Cell / Custom
in the box, enter @*.
now whatever you type in the cell will show up with dots to the end of the
cell, regardless of cell width
