Adding spaces inside text box values

I need to adding spaces inside the expression of a text box (in table header
or in page header).
For example: = "string 1" & " " & "string 2";
this expression returns only one space between string 1 and string 2.
Many thanksHi,
Just use =space(<no of spaces>) e.g space(10)

his distribution I have seen only a single space!
How can I solve this issue?
Thanks

= "string 1 " & "string 2"; where the space is inserted aftter the 1.

used by the spaces is not the same as you see when you define it. Try to put
much more spaces between the strings and you will see the distance increase.

text box.
I have tried:
- = "string1 " & "string2";
- = "string1" & space(10) & "string2";
- = "string1" & " " & "string2";
- = "string1 " & " " & space(10) & "
string2".
These solutions function inside MS VisualStudio .NET (I see the results by
preview),
BUT NOT FUNCTION AFTER THEIR DISTRIBUTION (I see the results inside Internet
browser).
Many thanks

ChrW(160) as nonbreaking space and the Internet browser won't change them.

In case you were wondering what is going on I can explain...
I have a SQL statement that returns a string of dates delimited by 8 spaces,
eg.
1-Mar-2006 2-Mar-2006 etc.
When in VS.Net IDE the preview window shows the spaces correctly but when
deployed to a website they are displayed as HTML and hence the multiple
spaces are ignored and displayed as a single space.
Try putting in and Reporting services sees the & and converts it to a html
&, so your source looks like , insert scream here.
CharW(160) gets past this and is rendered into HTML by RS as
Thanks again, I will be able to sleep tonight.
