Default How do you move to the next column

Just migrated from WP and cannot figure out how to enter text in the second
column of a 2-column page when the first column does not run to the bottom of
the page. In WP, ctrl+enter put you at the beginning of the next column. In
Word, that same combination puts you at the beginning of the next page. What
is it in Word 2007 to move from column to column?
Thanks, Tom

The default keyboard shortcut for inserting a column break is
Ctrl+Shift+Enter, or you can use the Insert Break dialog.

You may get some useful tips from

Thank you, I knew it was something simple.

BTW, let me ask you something unrelated. When I installed my trial Office
2007, Outlook was not included. There was a red "X" alongside of the program
on the modify screen. I downloaded a new version of it but when it
installed the program was missing again even though the ad mentions
integrating emails. Any ideas? I pre-ordered Office Standard and hope the
final product will have it in it.
Thanks, Tom

Outlook is not included in the trial that you download. It is however
included in the retail version of Microsoft Office Standard 2007. The only
retail version that does not include Outlook is the Microsoft Office Home &
Student 2007 version.
