Leading Spaces in SQL Reporting Services

SQL Reporting Services has a really annoying "feature" that essentially removes all leading spaces from a field, when rendering a report to the ReportViewer control.  You cannot use  , You cannot use space(5), etc.

But, if you need to do leading spaces, you can set a formula in the padding field of the cell.

Fantastic!
