Default True parallel columns in Word

I finally have to produce a document that uses parallel columns in Word - one
side in English, the second side in French. In reading how to do this, the
only option appears to be through the use of linked Text Boxes, which is a
particularly ugly solution.

A far more elegant (and simple) solution would be allow the definition of
two (or more columns) that don't snake like a newspaper, but instead will go
to the next page automatically. If I need to enter text in the second column,
then I can move to the column (mouse click or keystroke) and start typing
away.

This surely cannot be this hard.

Regards,

Flavelle
