I need a table in Impress that isn't a "table." I can do Insert >

example, I want:
left aligned column right aligned column right aligned column
I can't figure any way to do this in Impress. For example, I can
separate the items with tabs, but then all are left-aligned.
Surely there is a way to do this. I am just new to Impress and
haven't figured out how yet.
It sounds as if all you need - in addition to what you already know
about - is right tabs, rather than the default left tabs.
o Go to View | Ruler to display the rulers.
o Select the text material.
o Click in the horizontal ruler where you want the tabs, setting
those for your middle and right columns where you want the right
alignment to occur - at the right of the columns, that is.
o (With the material still selected) go to Format | Paragraph... |
Tabs (or right-click | Paragraph... | Tabs) and modify the relevant
tabs from Left to Right there.
Alternatively, you could skip the ruler and just create the tabs at
the last step, of course.
I trust this helps.
