Suzanne, this was great. I completed in about 5 minutes what I thought was
going to take over a very frustrating hour. I wonder why this isn't
suggested in the Word help area? My project for my church turned out great.

Thank you for your help.

You'll find this intensely frustrating with text boxes. Instead, use a
two-column borderless table. Break the table into rows from time to time to
avoid the problems of long, single-row tables.

I have a 15 page document that I need to put in a column on the left with
continuing columns on each additional page. I have an updated document
that
I need to put on the right side column. I'm figuring I'll need about 30
pages to copy and paste the old documents into the columns. I tried to
use
the "flow text side-by-side with linked text boxes" directions, however,
it
is difficult to get the text boxes the same width on each page and I
wasn't
successful in trying to copy the text boxes.

Can someone give me a simpler way to do this?

Thank you.
