How do you get the cursor into the next column?
I know this will be the dumbest question you have all heard, but I don't
generally use word processing programs. I'm trying to create a mock-up of a form for a new service I'm offering in my business and I'd like to use 3 columns. I set up the colums just fine but how do you get the cursor to switch to the next column? |

Ordinarily Word expects you to fill one column before trying to put text in
another, but you can insert a column break in a partially filled column using Ctrl+Shift+Enter. -- Suzanne S.

See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...ingColumns.htm for suggestions. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
