I know this is an old post, but still… I like to set this up with nested styles in the paragraph style and one character style.

My text looks like this:
[text][space][tab][space][$/€][tab][123.45]

I create a character style (I'll call it “tab” here) that's got a japanese dot underline set up, nothing else.

The nested style inside my paragraph style then gets set up like this:
[none] up to 1 tab
tab (character style) through 1 tab
[none] up to 1 forced line break
[repeat]

The reason I use a tab between the $/€ and numbers is to be able to keep those aligned nicely.
The spaces around the first tab are just to keep the line from touching the text as I don't like that look very much.
