Table of several columns in Writer. Creat one column of figures, right-justified. Line up by 
decimal point keeping two decimals places. If enter 17 (no decimal point), interpret to 17.00. If 
enter 17.1, show 17.10 -- without entering trailing zero. Can't find setting or mention in index, 
or under menus for formatting, alignment, or auto-correct.
To save keystrokes, can this be done in a table?
It should work if you select the column, right-click, and select Number Format. Then select Number 
and one of the formats that shows two decimal places, and set the decimal places value near the 
bottom of the dialog to 2.
