Ok, thanks.

When using tabs instead tables, this is what I achieved:

Now, is it possible to have different text styles for nicks, messages, timestamps if using tabs ?
Also, I fail to completely understand how they work, since its still not cutted as it is with tables (you can see that the text is going under nick in long lines and that timestamp is displaced).

This is how it looks with tables, and ideally I would want to achieve exactly the same look with tabs:

You can see how long line in table is cutted nice. Sorry for triple post, edit post function is disabled.

If you need to display time at the right side, after the message text, I am afraid tables is the only options to display your text nicely.
As for the layout at the left side, I suggested to make LeftMargin equal to the starting position of the message text, and compensate it with negative FirstMargin for the first line.

Ok thanks, guess I'll just go with the tables.
