Default Text to columns - right-aligned text


"Simon Ryan" wrote in message
...
I have a column which contains a product description (in text) and
catalogue/EAN number (numeric). The description varies in terms of number
of
characters whereas the catalgoe number doesn't. I want to right
justify/align
the column and then text-to columns so I can pick the number away from the
original column - a kind of reverse concatenate. Any suggestions out
there?


Are you questioning how to right-justify the data, or what to do next, AFTER
justifying?
