Hi, Hier is part of my MS-Word 2003 Help I copied/pasted for you (the signs >| and |< appear as graphical icons in Office application as you can see in the attached screen-shot) :
* Change paragraph direction The feature or some of the options described in this Help topic are only available if support for right-to-left (right-to-left: Refers to keyboard settings, document views, user interface objects, and the direction in which text is displayed. Arabic and Hebrew are right-to-left languages.) languages is enabled through Microsoft Office Language Settings. 1. Place the insertion point in the paragraph that you want to change, or select several paragraphs. 2. Do one of the following: - To have text begin from the left, click Left-to-Right >| on the Formatting toolbar (toolbar: A bar with buttons and options that you use to carry out commands. To display a toolbar, click Customize on the Tools menu, and then click the Toolbars tab.). - To have text begin from the right, click Right-to-Left |< on the Formatting toolbar. When you change the paragraph direction, Microsoft Word leaves justified and centered text as it is. In the case of left-aligned or right-aligned text, Word flips the alignment to its opposite. For example, if you have a left-to-right paragraph that is right aligned, such as the date at the top of a letter, clicking Right-to-Left results in a right-to-left paragraph that is left aligned.
