Creating columns in a document

J

Johngf

Can anyone tell me how to creat columns on one page of a
document without the entire document going to the same
column format? When I use the document icon on the
toolbar the entire document is changed.

Also, any information about resizing a calandar to fit in
a smaller area than the entire page would be appreciated.

One way I've done this is to type my data in first, then
select the portion I want to be formatted into columns,
and then select the column button. You can still add data
to the columns, but at least the divisions will be
separated from the remainder of the document.
Also, make sure to have a hard return (or other text)
placed before the text destined to be in columns. This
will make sure that you can type text before the columans
and not have the text converted into the column format as
well.

I think the safest way is to start a new section (Next Page) then using Format->Columns establish the column layout you want for that section. When you want to go back to single column just start another new section amd set columns to single

This way you protect the following sections from any format changes you need to accomodate non-text content in the multi-column section.
