    6 On the ruler, click the 5-inch or 13-centimeter mark to set the decimal tab and note

    how the amounts correctly align.

    IMPORTANT Make sure you click on the ruler and not above or below it.

    7 To reduce the amount of space between the last names and amounts, with the list
    selected, drag the decimal tab to the 3.5-inch or 9-centimeter mark.

    TIP For precision, hold the Alt key while dragging to view measurements on the ruler
    instead of the tick marks.

    8 To demonstrate how numbers align to the decimal point position, change the first
    amount in the list to $150.50.

    9 Press Ctrl+End to move your cursor to the end of the document and remove the text
    selection.

    the top of the document.

    11 Click the tab selector until a left tab is displayed, and set a left tab at the 1-inch or
    2.5-centimeter mark.
