Printing columns of figures in report

I am trying to print out a report in a VB6 program but can't get the figures
in a column lined up. In QB it was simple. Format all the numbers with
"###,###.##" or equivalent and print at a tab. All the decimal points lined
up. But it doesn't work in VB. Thought I might need a fixed pitch font but
when I do Printer.FontName = "Courier". No effect. It stays on Arial
although Coure and Courf are in the fonts directory.

Can anyone help ?
