Align Decimals in Table Columns
How to align decimals in table columns.
The best way to align decimals in a table column is to use a decimal tab. To do this, select the column for which you want decimal alignment, position your cursor on the tab indicator button at the far left of the ruler, then click repeatedly until the symbol for decimal tab appears (an inverted T with a dot). Then, click the ruler line directly above the selected column. (If you're not used to setting tabs through the ruler, it will be helpful for you to know that to select the column, move the mouse just above it and click when the mouse cursor changes to a downward-pointing arrow. Then, find the tab indicator button at the far left of the ruler.)
