IOMANIP Help! Alligning character symbols

fahmankhan75 (412)
I have a function here that is suppose to output the character sign "*" in a perfectly aligned manner. My probem is that when row 10 starts, my stars shift one unit to the right. Notice, on row 10 and furthermore, it only shifts on "A" but on bcde they're perfectly aligned. Can someone please help me how to fix this issue?


      a   b   c   d   e
Row1  *   *   *   *   *
.
.
.
.
Row10  *  *   *   *   *
Row11  *  *   *   *   *
Row12  *  *   *   *   *
Row13  *  *   *   *   *

You could align "Row" to the left.

Catfish, I did do that currently but I'm still getting the star one unit to the right on row 10,11,12...
