Thanks for everyone reply.

I am sorry for replying little late.

Here is part of perl code that i want to print out.

Code:
 print ("------------------------------------------------------","\n");
  printf "%+2sSELECTION\t%+3sVOTES\t%+3sPERCENTAGE\n";
  print ("------------------------------------------------------","\n");

  printf("Choice 1\t %6s $count\t\t %6s $iRoundup1 \n");
  printf("Choice 2\t %6s $count\t\t %6s $iRoundup2 \n");
  printf("Choice 3\t %6s $count\t\t %6s $iRoundup3 \n");

  #printf "%1s", Choice 1\t,"%6s",$count\t\t,"%6s",$iRoundup1\n";
  #printf "%1s", Choice 2\t,"%6s",$count2\t\t,"%6s",$iRoundup2\n";
  #printf "%1s", Choice 3\t,"%6s",$count3\t\t,"%6s",$iRoundup3\n";
  print ("------------------------------------------------------", "\n");

so basically i want to print numbers right alignment.

I tried DMan printf("%6s", $number) but it didn't worked.

Or
May be i am doing something wrong.

Can some help me and fix the printf so it print number right align.

thank you for your time
