Based on above input, we will put code to check each output

Left Align:

private void btnLeft_Click(object sender, RibbonControlEventArgs e)
{
	//Capture user selection
	excel.Range oRange = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.Selection;
	//Align text

}

Output:

Distributed Align:

private void btnDistributed_Click(object sender, RibbonControlEventArgs e)
{
	//Capture user selection

}

Output:

Justify Alignment:

private void btnJustify_Click(object sender, RibbonControlEventArgs e)
{
	//Capture user selection
	excel.Range oRange = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.Selection;
