Default Justify right AND left?

Word 2002 / Windows XP

I am writing in english and Urdu script. I want to justify the english from
the left and the Urdu from the right within a single line, but I can't
figure out how to do it. Anyone any ideas?

Use a two-column table without borders.

If you have large quantities of text (and especially if you're wanting to
balance English and Urdu paragraphs), a table, as Stefan suggested, is
appropriate, but the usual way of placing text to the left and right of a
single line is to place a right-aligned tab stop at the right margin and
insert a tab character between the blocks of text (i.e., EnglishtabUrdu).
