Default How to Create Template w/ every page same format as original

It seems like an easy thing to do, and yet....

Creating school grading sheets, time sheets etc...and I wanted to
create a template with three text boxes (columns) and one text box
below (row), so that when the text exceeded the box on one page it
would flow into the same box on the next. In other words, all
continuation pages would be identical to the original one.

Problem: although this works with the columns I make, the horizontal
box on the bottom is 'pushed' off the page by the text above it,
rather than the text jumping to the next page's column and
continuing.

I had a bit of luck using header/footer, but it's not the best
solution.

Thanks,
Casper D.

From your description, linked text boxes would seem appropriate, but note
that this will be a lot easier if you used page layout software.
