We are using Word here because it can be programmed for variable text.

There
is a place in our document where there will sometimes be a logo and

sometimes
type spelling out an institution's name in upper and lower case. The type

or
logo needs to be positioned in relation to the bottom right of the page,

but
the client wants the type to be a flush left paragraph.

In other words, if the institution's name is Microsoft Office, "Microsoft"
would be on one line, "Office" would be on the next line. The M and the O
would line up, flush left to each other (not flush left to the page or the
column or whatever).

Now the end of longest line of each institution (the "t" in "Microsoft" in
this case) must be a certain distance from the right of the page, let's

say
.5 in. The baseline of "Office" must be a certain distance from the

bottom
of the page, let's say .5 in. again.

We actually figured out a way to do this with a table, but the programmers
say they need it to be a text box. Can it be done?
