I need to justify the text of specific paragraphs within a document, with
both left and right indents. I can't get the right indent to work?
Suggestions?

What are you trying that doesn't work? Are you using the sliders on the
ruler, the Format | Paragraph dialog, or what?

It's a church bulletin, printed on both sides. The 2nd page is fine, I set a
right indent where I needed it and it worked. The first page has a section
that needs to be right indented. When I go to the ruler to set it (to align
with the one on the 2nd page) I only see the cross bar that indicates it is a
right margin. The layout was already set up and I've had to make some
adjustments (tabs, margins, etc) which have been fine, I just can't get this
one section to right indent.

Then use the Format | Paragraph dialog to add a right indent.

Thank you Suzanne. I had tried that before and it didn't work, so I tried it
again, and it worked perfectly. Computers .. go figure Thanks again.
