//With colors for better understanding
nw = New Window( "Reports",
	<<Journal,
	hlb = H List Box( Spacer Box(<<Color(red)), V List Box( Spacer Box(<<Color(blue)), hlb2 = H Center Box(), Spacer Box(<<Color(green)) ), Spacer Box(<<Color(yellow)) )
);

hlb2 << Append( tb = Text Box( "Updated on : " || Short Date( Today() ) ) );
tb << Set Font Size( 10 ) << Set Font Style( "Bold" );


//Without colors
nw = New Window( "Reports",
	<<Journal,
	hlb = H List Box( Spacer Box(), V List Box( Spacer Box(), hlb2 = H Center Box(), Spacer Box() ), Spacer Box() )
);

hlb2 << Append( tb = Text Box( "Updated on : " || Short Date( Today() ) ) );
tb << Set Font Size( 10 ) << Set Font Style( "Bold" );

Re: Display Text at center of the Page in Journal

So, we can make use of the spacer box and adjust it manually. I thought there are other way to do it. Thanks for input.
