Numbered / Outline List w/ Right Margin Note

M

Martin Schmid

I'd like to create a outline/numbered list, with the ability to have a
separate right-hand column of info, aligned w/ each row of info of the list.
Using a table seems cumbersome, is there an easier way?

I'm guessing a (borderless) table would be much easier than any other
method.

The only problem w/ a table, is that if, for example, the text in one line
is edited, and wraps, the corresponding info in the right hand cells gets
mis aligned, i.e.:

Original
1. asldjfk asdikfjaoisfjaiodsjfkl sadfkljasd lkfkl A
2. asldfkj akdjsfl adjskf kadjsf aldjs faidsj fk B

Revised:
1. asldjfk asdikfjaoisfjaiodsjfkl sadfkljasd lkfkl A
asldkfj aiojv ivjdkv dv
B
2. asldfkj akdjsfl adjskf kadjsf aldjs faidsj fk

Hopefully, you can see that when line 1 gets modified, and the text wraps to
the next line, the 'B' code in the second column doesn't follow line 2 as it
should.

You start a new row for each numbered item.
