I have Excel data mail-merged into Word for the production of printed
checks.  Thanks to Graham Mayor (cheers) I've overcome most of the
formatting hurdles but now I need to (a) fix the start point of some of
the data on the right-hand side (ie. the numeric check amount) mainly
so that it isn't affected by the differing lengths of data to the left
of it, (b) wrap text which exceeds the width of the middle column
(mainly Payee name), and (c) if possible, set differing row heights
within the three (or more) columns as on the check they aren't exactly
level with each other.

I should add I've tried using section break but not getting anywhere
with it.

Use a borderless table with fixed cells sizes so that they don't move.
