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.
