MS Word 2010 text alignment

I'm tearing out my grey hair trying to get columns of text in a paragraph in the middle of a doc lined up - the 'Advance' field seems to be a nightmare and a 'sledgehammer'. 'Tables' seem to throw the whole paragraph awry, 'columns' throws the whole document out. I have now resorted to putting the text into Excel which has solved the problem with the L/R 'alignment' function - and is infinitely more simple.

Back in the 'old' days I used Wordperfect (I still have it installed!). That had a perfect, simple 'typeset' function. Why is Word so poor in this respect? What have I missed?
