Page Layout With Columns
I want to have a two column page with different formatting for each column.
I also want to be able to swith the curserfrom one column to the other and type anywhere in the selected column. But my column layout requires me to type to the bottom of the first column before the cursor will move to the second column. How can I do the page layout I want? Thanks in advance. |

Page Layout With Columns
It is possible to Insert a Column Break to jump to the top of the next
column. What do you mean by different formatting for each column? An alternative to Word's newspaper-style columns would be a borderless table with two-columns. Can't tell from your description whether that would be better for you. On 11/2/05 11:06 AM, "Dockpost" wrote: I want to have a two column page with different formatting for each column.

Don't use the "columns" feature, use a table instead. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/UsingColumns.htm. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
