I am working with a table in MicroSoft Word. I would like to format a column
with commas, of currency text. How do I do that?

Thanks,

Word does not have the same capability as Excel in this respect. How about
inserting an Excel Spreadsheet instead of a Word table. Then you will have
all of the cell formatting capability that comes with Excel and except when
you are actually working in the "table" it will appear as a normal Word
table.

I tried your suggestion with hope that it would solve my problem with
aligning text vertically in a cell, but the font quality was diminished. I'm
not sure if a printed version would look better, but, on my computer, the
fonts did not look like the fonts on the rest of the page.

If the text in the Excel "table" is formatted with the same font and size as
you are using in the rest of the document, it should come out looking the
same.
