Help! - Formatting Comps

MBA that is about to hit the desk. As part of our training, we are doing sample projects for our team. One of the exercises is a comps output. Right now my formatting is as follows:

10.4x

9.8

My decimals aren't aligned. I know the decimals need to be aligned, but I can't figure out the custom formatting code to align it (our bank doesn't add the separate column for the x). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It seems like you would need to custom format the non x digits with 0.0_x. This adds a space to the number from the right side that equals the width of your multiple x. Also make sure your multiple format is 0.0x to match.
