Steve, Simple solution. In Autonumbering add a tab before and after the entry. In the tab settings make the first tab a right aligned tab and the second tab a left aligned tab. We usually put .15" in between the tabs and have the whole list indented .25". Adjust tab spacing as needed if you run into lists with three digits.
