Alignment in tables

G

Graham

I just created a table in Word 2002. I haven't done it
before using this version. All the text I insert aligns to
the right, whatever alignment I try to impose using table
properties or cell properties. Is this a bug or am I doing
something stupid?

As elsewhere in Word, in tables horizontal alignment is a paragraph
formatting property usually set in styles. Check the style definition.

Also, you can get this kind of behavior if the paragraph formatting has a
decimal tab at (or past) the right margin.
