Yes, and that is exactly what I have written to you. Carefully
select all fields in the particular column (so that they are
blue), then go to Layout/Tabular and in the frame H. Alignment
select Right. What's wrong with that?

Fill the column with the content, then select it and set in the
field Width the width, which the column is to take. That's it.
LyX will break the lines appropriately.

Which version of LyX do you have? If not 1.1.6fix, go and
upgrade.

You are probably right and LyX doesn't support this. Sorry.
