Attached is a screen shot of what I am trying to do.

I would like to be able to arrange text within a cell "freely" without having to use the space bar to move text around. How is this done?

Thanks in advance.cf.png

You really shouldn't be using that spacebar to adjust the layout anywhere is a document. You should only use paragraph alignments, tabs & tab settings for that.

4. Use Tables and Tabs to Arrange Text in Microsoft Word

Within a table, to use tab settings, use Ctrl+Tab.

BTW, if I were using that form, I would want all of the fields aligned at the bottom of the row.

Thanks for the help. I always have problems with aligning text within documents the way I want to. As macropod said you shouldn't be using the space bar to align text.
