Default Aligning text in columns

This does the trick. Thank you very much!

7M was telling us:
7M nous racontait que :

When columns consist of several lines (in one row), I'm having trouble
aligning the text horizontally, especially when one column has much
text, and in the next I only want to add a line or two.
The only solution seems to use the enter-key a lot, but any
adjustments made in the next column disturbs the alignment again.

Does anyone have a better idea? Thanks,


Use one row per paragraphs instead of having many paragraphs in one cell.
You can hide the borders if you want all those paragraphs appears as if they
are in the same cell..
Very often I have to re-format documents for my clients,. I see this all the
time (many ¶ in one cell to align the text in those cells with text in
adjacent cells). The first thing I do is add cell borders with the pencil
from the Tables border, and then I remove all the extra ¶. After that,
editing the table is a breeze.

Salut!
