The quickest and easiest imo is to use a text box. Then you can put the
heading where ever you would like and it won't interfere with the formatting on the page. Or you can use the header section of the document. hope this helps. RC "Taylor" wrote: I need to center a title above 2 columns of text . It will only center above the first column. Help. |

Select the entire paragraph containing the title, go to the Columns dialog,
and choose one column. Word will automatically insert a section break between the one-column and two-column parts of the text.

How do you insert a title above 2 columns of text?
Just a caution on these methods, particularly if you need a table of
contents: - Word 2007 is the first version of Word that can "see" headings in text boxes for the purpose of creating a table of contents. In earlier versions, you can use a frame (from the Forms toolbar) instead of a text box. - No version of Word can include in the TOC any "heading" that you put in a header. Also, if the document contains more than one page, you'd have to use the first-page header (after going to Page Setup Layout and choosing "Different first page"), and you couldn't do the same trick a second time in the same document unless you insert a section break. In other words, this method is too complicated for anything except a one-page document. -- 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.
