Is there any way to format data in a column so that the decimal points
are aligned?

I thought that something like ”0,#####” should work, but it didn't… so
now we are two who want to know…


I'm assuming you're working in calc. If you format the cells with
0.000000 it will display six significant figures to the right of the
decimal. It will display a zero if there is no other number to display.
Because each number has the same number of significant figures to the
right of the decimal, the decimal points will be aligned. Adjust the

Only for a fixed width font though.



Yes, that's the kind o kluge I've been using. What I'd like to see added to calc is behavior along the lines of the way a decimal tab works in Writer.
