Tabular information within text - as in a message

The trick isn't that difficult.

"Monospaced text" is a feature when text is shown using a font where every character occupies the same space, ie. the same width value.

Excel has a possibility to store a table into "formatted text" with spaces instead of the tab -character. When all characters occupy the same space the table looks like a table.

Monospaced text can be entered within the CODE and /CODE directives surrounded by the square brackets.

Sorry for the ADP vocabulary...

Thanks everyone for your team effort. The charts all look good even if I do say so myself. Hopefully the info will be useful after all this effort.
Hasse, you will eventually get us all computer literate, although I'm sure it will take quite some time.

Thanks again guys,
Jeanette

Finnish born in 1870 Census MICHIGAN

I have made another little chart following up the 10 Finnish born
found on the 1870 census. Some discrepancies occur between the
Heritage Quest Index and the Library of Michigan Index on these few names.

Marquette Finns

Syrene,
When do you need the census transcription that I did for Marquette? I forget now exactly what I did but know there's quite a bit of data for me to transcribe.

Once complete, do you want me to send to Hasse or email the file to you?

Marquette

Hi Kevin,
Your work would make a great addition to the Oracle from Delphi collection. Let's send it to Hasse. Once he's got it on the Oracle, we can access it from Marquette during FinnFest with no problem. If it turns out we don't have Internet access at FinnFest, we can download it to a CD and use it that way. Either way, Oracle will make it available to everyone!
Thanks!
Syrene
