It has been several years since one of my documents has included a table
so I don't recall how to set the horizontal alignment of a cell separate

A column of text should be left aligned, but the heading should be
centered. Similarly, a column decimal aligned should have the column
header
centered.
I've not found a menu or table setting allowing me to do this. I
also did
not see a solution in Chapter 2 (Tables) of the Embedded Tools document.
A pointer is needed.

To muck with the alignment of a single cell, park the cursor in the
cell, right-click, select "Columns/Rows" and mark the cell Multicolumn.
Then right-click again and change the alignment. Normally that change
would apply to the entire column, but in a multicolumn cell it applies
only to the "grouped" cell(s).
I think this can be sussed out of the description of multicolumn cells
in the Embedded Objects manual, but I don't think it's all that easy to
find if you don't know where to look.
