Word 2007 versus Google Documents: justifying individual paragraphs

Hello,

I pasted from notepad to google documents
and encountered a slight problem. When I
select the first block of text in order to justify
it with CTRL-J all following blocks of text become
justified as well even though they were not highlighted.
Furthermore everything becomes really slow. On the
other hand in Word 2007 I can paste the text document
and can highlight and justify (with CTRL-J) separate blocks
one at a time which is what I wanted to do under google
documents ( http://docs.google.com/) but could not do.

Any ideas on how to fix this problem I have encountered
under google documents?

Thanks,

John Goche

P.S. I did search usenet for a newsgroup devoted to
google documents but could not find one so I decided
to post my inquiry here.
 
You are going to have to look a bit more. This group supports Word, not
Google Docs. Maybe if you found a more generic newsgroup instead of a
Microsoft one?

Thank you for your pointer. Anyway, just for the record, I
solved my problem by simply typing CTRL-J whil the cursor
is on a paragraph to justify it. What I was doing wrong is
that I was highlighting it first. Google documents inserts
a <DIV> element with the TEXT-ALIGN: justify;
CSS property. Too bad it uses <div> instead of <p>.

Anyways, thanks for your help,

John Goche
