Terry,
Thanks for your comments. I had initially tried this method of
changing the alignment of text but I think I had accidentally selected a
non-text component because I didn't get the text alignment option.
However doing it again all worked well, although I really wish there was
a simple global text selection option as it took me 10 minutes selecting
the individual text components whilst holding my finger on the Ctrl (not
shift) button. (Holding the shift button isn't helpful here because it
selects the intervening components in the list also).
Best wishes
Nick

To do that select the box, right click, select detailed properties, select the text item, then properties, and on the text tab chose the alignment you want. If there is more than one box involved, select all of them, right click, select all items (click on the first item, scroll to the last, and hold Shift while clicking on the last), select Properties and on the text tab chose the alignment you want.
