Template with 3 sections
Dear sir,
I want to make a template for my regular report writing. I wish I can divided a A4 page into three sections. The first two sections are two one-forth pages which located on upper part of the page. The third section will occupy the rest of the bottom part of the page. My question is that how to make the two one-forth pages independently, meaning the text in the first section won't flow to second section when the first section is full. My second question is that how to fix size of each section in the A4 size page. Many thanks, Wilchong. -- Message posted via http://www.officekb.com |

Sounds like you need a table with Exact row heights.

In the Table Properties dialog, you can fix the row heights and the column
widths. It sounds like you need to start with a two row, two column table and select the two cells in the second row and use the Merge Cells facility to merge those to cells into one. -- Hope this helps.

Maybe. Perhaps I read it wrong, but I got the impression there would be
three rows, two in the top half and one in the bottom. -- Suzanne S.

I see. Just forget my old question. May be let me start my question from a
simple one. Right now, I want to divide a A4 page into two columns. So, I just click €śformat€ť from tool bar and choose two columns. In this two columns page, there are NOT independent. What I mean is that the text will continue to second column of the same page. OK, right now, I want these two columns are independent, text cannot continue to second column. Another word, I want to fix the size of these two columns. I wish my explanation now is more unambiguous. Many thanks, Wilchong Suzanne S. Barnhill wrote: Maybe.

The format of "columns" is incorrect for what you want to achieve. These
columns are working correctly, as in "newspaper" columns. What you need, as discussed by Ms Barnhill and Mr Robbins, is a Table; text will not jump from one cell to another. With the required number of columns and rows, with the rows sized to an "exact" size so they wont enlarge as more text is entered. Be aware that you can still have as much text in a cell as you like, it just wont be viewed/printed if it continues beyond the set-size of the cell.
