        ' Example #1: PadRight(totalWidth [, paddingCharacter])
        ' Returns a string that is left-aligned and padded on right with character specified.
        ' If no padddingCharacter is specified, space is used. totalWidth is total width of column
        ' This allows you to create a nice straight column even though lengths of text vary.
        '****************************************************************************************
 
        Console.WriteLine("Example #1: PadRight(totalWidth [, paddingCharacter]) ")
 
        Dim strPadRightExampleA As String = "This is a test string"
        Dim strPadRightExampleB As String = "short"
        Dim strPadRightExampleC As String = "longer"

        Console.WriteLine(strPadRightExampleA.PadRight(35) + "next column starts here")
        Console.WriteLine(strPadRightExampleB.PadRight(35) + "next column starts here")
        Console.WriteLine(strPadRightExampleC.PadRight(35) + "next column starts here")
 
        'write blank line to make output easier to read
