You have answered your own question - justification is not an option provided by Access and cannot be implemented without the use of variable-width spacing between characters, which textbox controls cannot do.

As I have mentioned there is no property which can be set, nor is there an alternative in code which truly justifies text. Some approaches have been taken over the years by using multiple space characters to mimic partial full justification, but without the ability to control spacing by small specific increments it is simply not possible to implement such techniques correctly.
Fully-justified text is provided by Word itself and can be done either by exporting the results to Word, or using Word as an embedded object within your forms etc. This is not something I have used - I have not found it necessary use fully-justified text in any work I've ever done with Access - so I cannot comment further.
