Default Table, page layout tab, 'columns' cmd

Put the cursor in the first cell then format columns two columns. The
table should shrink and reflow into two columns. You may no longer be able
to read the content.

I want to know how to 'snake' a multi-page table into columns on fewer
numbers of pages.

I think you're confusing two features: tables, and
[snaking/newspaper] columns. See if this makes things clearer:

I have a 3 column table 12 pages long; I want to show more entries
of the table on a page, but the 'column' cmd will not work.

Incidentally, the word 'column' is used 2 ways in the application:
a) 'column's in a table
b) 'column's per page

I want the table to appear in more than 1 column on the 'page'.

Thanks.
