I believe Excel does not have this capability of left and right justify in a
cell.

Excel makes a very poor word processing apllication.

Word is better suited to this task.

Hi John & thank you,
I tried to do what you suggested on a paragraph of text and it all went to
the left and some text dissappeared. What I am after is something that I know
we used to do in words, where the words are all straight on the left at the
same time as all straight on the right. the words are spread out across each
line to allway end at the same place on the right and the left.
Any other ideas?

I know so. From the cell with text, to easy do it, select the
alignment from the icon(s) on the menu bar. This works for me when I
do forms using Exel.
