CURSES!!!  I deeply apologize.  I have been out of the house all day.
I had stayed up late last night and forgot I had played around with
Peter's suggestion.  The screen capture I just sent you privately
reflects Peter's suggestion.  When I removed his line, you are right,
with the longer string sequence it is *not* left justified as it
should be.

Ah, well.  I tried to be helpful.  This seems like buggy behavior,
though, to me.  Perhaps there is something about these widgets we are
not understanding?
