column contents alignment

B

I have columns in my worksheet with numbers in them. They have 2,3,4,5 or 6
digit numbers. I have elected to center the numbers in the column, and of
course show up at various widths based on the number of digits. What I want
to do is to align the numbers in the column/s, still centered, with the RIGHT
digit aligned through out the column. i.e.
2,345 and NOT 2,345
123 123
23 23
7 7
Thanks for any help and have a good day all..........Bill

You might need to *cheat* and do a custom format of:
"#,# "
(minus the quotes)
and right-align your numbers. The extra spaces will cause it yo look like
your numbers are center-aligned, while the actual right-alignment will match
up the right side.

Custom format:

?????#

With "Center" still in force.

Your attempt to display things doesn't come out very well, even in a fixed
width font, but if you want to align the right digits, you need to use
right-aligned (which is default for numbers), not centred.
