How can I right and left justify text in Excel. I like to apply that
to a group of cells, so that all the strings (each string in its own
cell) will look like one paragraph.

What version are you running? In 4.0, and I think in 3.0 too, all you
have to do is select the cells/rows/columns you want to apply the
attribute to and then click the button above which "shows" lines either
left justified, centered, or right justified. Voila, done.

In both xl3 and xl4, this is not only trivial, it can be done so the whole
paragraph is a single cell! In "format", you have "alignment". At this
point, you not only have the choices of "left", "center" , and "right", but
you can select "line wrap" as well. With this selected, just keep typing, and
the cell keeps getting taller and taller...
