Changing columns in a doc

[KNeary]

I am trying to write a document using 3 columns (Office XP) and I can't
figure out how to enter info in either the second or third column. Also I
would like to start the doc with 3 columns then have a section of regular
text then back to columns.
Can this be done and how can I do it.

You can insert a column break (Ctrl+Shift+Enter), but if you need parallel
columns, you're better off using a table. To change the number of columns,
you need section breaks. See
