Default Add a column to the left of an existing document

Hi Suzanne,
Using format/Columns/number of columns (4) uncheck equal column width.

I can't find out how to change the column width correctly. When I change the width it adds more columns than I need (5).
I put in four columns and it made five and the data is all missed up. Got data from the second row in the first etc.

I applied this to the whole document from selected text also.

If the text is in a table, then you should absolutely be able to add a
column to the left of the leftmost one. Select that column, right-click, and
choose Add Columns; it will be to the left automatically. You'll probably
need to repair the column width (but you'd have to change it anyway, to
accommodate an extra column).


Have a good day,
