align numbers by decimal point
I have a table with a column of numbers with different amounts of decimal
places, some of which have footnotes. I would like to align them by their decimal places, but since the number of figures before & after their decimal places are not consistent, I cannot figure out a way to do this. Is there a way to align by an assigned character? |

align numbers by decimal point
Insert a Decimal Tab in the column of the table at the position that you
want the decimal points to be aligned. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
