What's the best program to type status accounts?

When using Microsoft word, the tables easily become misaligned by users. Is there something better?

Didn't find your answer?

When using word, it is arduous to get the tables to align properly. Once you've completed it and the figures change, say from a positive to a negative with brackets, the fiddling with word tables starts again.  Heaven forbid someone else corrupts you document whilst reviewing!! Is there a better program?

or use the decimal tab... it works in tables.

(You just have to use Ctrl+Tab to jump to it, as tab jumps to the next box in the table).

Thanks - I'll explore that but I'm finding that when people in the company use different versions of word (mine is Word 2016), it effects the text within the box. So in Word 2016, for instance, it squashes the text, that looks perfectly formatted in other versions.
