Default Creating Columns

Instead of using columns ,you could use a three-column table with the
leftmost column the width of the text column, and the second and third
columns the way you want your table to be. You can Merge all the cells
in the left column if you want it to look just like a column of text.
(You can also put ruled cell boundaries on the ones to the right if
you want it to look like a table.)

Hello,

I would like to create a two column document but the column on the left I
would like to type in text having Word use its default settings with word
wrap but when it gets to the bottom of the page / column I would like to have
a hard stop. In the second column or the right side of the page I would like
to insert a table with two columns and 40+ rows. Not sure if this can be done
or if I am not using columns for the proper purpose. Can someone assist me
with what I am looking to do?

Thanks in advance!
