Please give proper subject to your mails.
You need following lines in your file:
1. Use package dcolumn
\usepackage{dcolumn}
2. Define new column to align on decimal
\newcolumntype{d}[1]{D{.}{.}{#1}}
3. Use tabular like this to cause 2nd column to align on
decimal, by using d{n}, where n is no of places after
decimal.
\begin{tabular}{|l|d{3}|c|c|}
