Can you describe the output you want?

Based on the current number format ("# ??/??"), Excel is formatted for mixed numbers (a b/c). The # tells Excel to only display the whole number portion if it is not 0 (0 will not be displayed). The ? tell Excel to not display insignificant 0's, but to keep the space. So, this number format will keep the whole number portion of each value aligned, and will keep the fraction part aligned on the /. So, one could argue that Excel is aligning the values exactly as you have told it to. (You should be able to see this if you use 0's "0 00/00" so that it displays 0's for each placeholder).

Perhaps you simply want each value centered? A number format using all # might be more ("# ##/##") appropriate for what you want.

If not, I might suggest a review of this (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ex...372.aspx?CTT=1) for instructions on the different parts of number formatting. A better explanation of how you want the values aligned would also be needed.
