Default Equal column heights in newspaper columns

Thanks Jay! That seems to do the trick.

Cheers,

Go to the end of the second column and insert a Continuous section
break. Word will automatically try to equalize the columns unless
you've gone to Tools Options Compatibility and checked the one for
"Don't balance columns for Continuous section starts". The attempt to
balance the columns could fail if the paragraph at the end of the
first column has "Keep together" turned on.
