Default How do I add leading dots from text to Dollar amount?

I think it's called Tab Leader or something like that. Using Word 2007, I
want to have a trail of leading dots going from where the text ends to where
the numbers begin.

Example:

Apples................$0.99 Lb
Grapes................$0.79 Lb
Plums..................$1.19 Lb.

I can manually type a row of dots, but they don't line up. How do I set this
up? The columns will be in tables.
Any help would be appreciated.
