Thanks.

My daughters teacher specified for my daughter's homework that her
name
and
class has to be right aligned but left aligned on each first
character. In

words, the longest line will be right aligned, but the shorter lines
will
be
aligned with the first character of the longest line, e.g.
Joan Smith
English Lit
Period 2
and NOT
Joan Smith
English Lit
Period 2
How is this done??
Thanks.
