I'd like to add several spaces to a string variable. For example, if the
value is "VM", I'd like to add 7 spaces so the new value is "VM ".

Is that possible?
Thanks.
 
Of course it's possible.

Are you having trouble with the obvious:

string s1 = "VM";

s1 = s1 + " ";

~ or ~

string s1 = "VM";
string s2 = s1 + " ";

Hi VM,

You can use the string type's PadRight() method.

Hi VM,
You cannot modify strings. They are immutable. You can only set a varable of
type "string" to reference different String object. Means that if you have
more than one string variable referencing the same string you have to change
all of them.

However, cack out String.PadRight method and StringBuilder class.
Bear in mind that they return different string objects.
