Change Text Alignment

Let's take a look at how to align a control's text to the left, center, or right.

1. In Design View or Layout View, select the control that contains the text you want to align.

   Text alignment commands can be accessed through the Text Formatting group on the Home tab or the Font group on the Format tab under Report Layout Tools.

2. Click the Align Text Left, Center, or Right buttons.
   

Besides aligning text within a control, you can also align controls themselves within a form or report. Select the controls you want to align and use the commands in the Sizing & Ordering group on the Arrange tab.
