how do I right flush part of a single line
In wordPerfect, if I want to hard right flush PART of a single line of text,
I simply hit alt-F7. How do I do that in MS Word 2003 Thanks Joe Matthews Gibsons, BC |

How do I do that in MS Word 2003 Thanks Joe Matthews Gibsons, BC Microsoft Word is very different from WordPerfect in this and many other respects. In Word, you set a tab stop at the right margin (most easily by clicking in the ruler), and type a tab character before the part of the text that you want to be flush right. There is no single keystroke to do this. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

To be precise, there is no way to set a tab stop "at the right margin" in
Word. What you can do is set a tab stop at the same distance as the right margin - however, if you change the margin, the tab stop does not move. -TedMi "Jay Freedman" wrote in message ...

That's true. And unfortunate. The saving grace is that most people never
change their margins. TedMi wrote: To be precise, there is no way to set a tab stop "at the right margin" in Word.

In Word 2007 (and I assume in Word 2010), you can in fact set an "alignment
tab" that will move if the margins change. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "TedMi" wrote in message ...

Yes, Word 2010 continues to offer the alignment tab.
