I have a complete document, formatted normally. I would like to change
this to a two column format with my original in the left hand column
and my new, corrected, edited copy, in the right. Does anyone know if
this is possible?

Thank you for taking a moment for my post.

I suspect the easiest way to effect this is to use a two-column (borderless)
table. Note, however, that Word doesn't like long single-row tables, so
start a new row with each paragraph or at some other natural break point.

Sideways approach--Word does offer features for (supposedly) making
corrections and edits easy. If a table is not required, but simply what you
thought would be best, you could investigate those features.

You might prefer the table, that's fine, or a table will be better if the
person to receive the doc gets it on paper or is not very tech-savvy.

Suzanne,

Thanks for the advice. The only other option I could find in the Word
help suggested using linked Text Boxes.

The multi-post occured because the operation timed out twice and did
not appear to accept my post, but I appreciate your multi-posting to
let me know.

Jason
