Welcome Vern.  We're gonna need more than that -- os, python version, your
code, traceback if you get one, what results you get, what you want

	Show us what you've tried.

	Hint: practically every Python formatting operation allows for
specifying a field width. String interpolation formatting 
	"format string with %s or other placeholders" % (tuple, of, data)
essentially follows C printf() format capability (with the extension that
%s can be used for practically every data type, but for numerics you likely
want %d or %f or %e)

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.

I don't think this express is a question, or asking for help.
