How do I align on a colon?

[MyDogOlly]

I am typing an itinerary and want to align on a colon (for time, such at
10:00am, 2:00pm etc). I Word Perfect there is a way to change the align
character and align on it, but I can't find it in Word.

Use a decimal tab stop; it will align on the first non-numeric character
(other than the thousands separator) in a text string.

goto --> view --> show ruler --> click to the symbol that looks like a "L"
which call "left tab" continue to click this symbol until it says "decimal
tab" it looks like an upside down "T" with a dot to the right of it. Then
click on the ruler where you would like for the colon to line up in your
document.

First, you go to the "View", then click on the ruler. Click the "L" like symbol continually until it becomes a upside down "T" with a dot on its right, move the ruler to the position you like to place the colon. Click "Tab" at the left of the colon and the colon will move to that position.
