[Tex/LaTex] Placement of text in the bottom of cell in latex longtable a table across multiple pages

Question

I have searched a lot about the placement of the text in the bottom of cell in latex table. I am using longtable so that i need the table across two-three pages. But i found somewhere that we cannot use "b" in long table. I have tried using "b", "\raggedbottom" etc. But it din't work for me.

My requirement is, the table should appear across two-three pages. The table has three columns. In the first column the text should be placed in the top (I simply used p{1cm}), and in the middle properly justified text (p{15cm}) and the third column the text should appear at the bottom (Here I tried the most possible ways including b{1cm}). I am not talking about alignment here, I am saying the text should sit at the bottom of the cell.

I have added a snapshot of the requirement (which is done in MS word). But i need it in latex. Kindly help.

Answer 1

The formatting of longtable and tabular is the same, so I use tabular here.

Note that b does not mean "place this at the bottom" it means "place the alignment point at the bottom row" so it is the middle column that wants b so the (03) aligns with its bottom row.
