Technology Tip Number 116
To Make a Column

Sometimes it just looks nice to have columns of text on your page. This Technology Tip is all about how to do it in Microsoft Word:

Type your text into Word. For this example I'll be using the Bill of Rights from the US Constitution which I copied and pasted from the internet.

Highlight the text:
Go to "Format" on the menu bar and select "Columns"
In this example I'm going to select two columns. Note that you can make changes to the blank space between the columns (the gutter) and the width of the columns. Then click "OK"
Admire your new columns:
