Microsoft Word Help

I have a little query that you guys might be able to help me with.

I'm doing the order of service for the wedding and I was wondering how I would be able to display the list of names of who people are in the following format;


Chief Bridesmaid...............Name
Best Man........................Name
Bridesmaid.......................Name

etc

...where the Name is always aligned with the rest of the names.

Any ideas?

 

I think MS word has tables.. let me open it up real quick then I'll edit the post.


Yeah.. click Tables > Insert > Table, then have a 2 column, 1 row table. Then edit it so there is no border if you want. (Right click, borders and shading)

I've used a few tables already to put this data in but I dont have any space to add more tables unfortunately.

I know there's a way to do the ........ thing when displaying a contents page but I'm not sure about a normal list.

 

How could you not have room for more tables? They'd take up the same room as that I'd think.

Tab button should do the trick

 

Yeah but I've been told I need the dots like;

Position...........................Name

And it's impossible to get them in line by just typing them in.

 

lol believe me, If I start messing around with more tables than I've got right now I'll never get these things printed in time.

 

After typing it out highligh it and click on
Format> Paragraph>
Alignment drop down menu> Distributed

That may do it for you depending on what the layout is like.

 

Hmmm.... Thanks for your help guys.

Still no farther forward though unfortunately.

I'll let you know if I find a solution.

 

Got it!!!

If you use tabs you can set the type of leader you want.
