Writing data to a file at a specific columns and rows ?	Can't Post

I write to a file some data with print:
print FILE "$user $salary $year \n";
i get something like this:

john 23232 23
simon 34343 34
bill gates 454454545 54

how to arange data to something like this:
john 23232 23
simon 34343 34
bill gates 454454545 54

Is print or printf able to write at specific row, column ?

Thanks a lot!
