character spacing issue

I have a script that has a counter in it, the output from the script puts the values in columns, and when the values are greater than 9 it moves the rest of the row over, hence displacing the columns. Is their something I can do to make these values fit in their respective column? I tried typing an example of what this looks like but it came out all effed up. thanks.

look into using the vB codes to 'quote' the code - look into the 'code' tags.
