Word is very capable of creating the format that you want.
You could use columns, but I think you will find a table, without borders
displayed easier to manage.
Create a 3 column, 1 row table.
Select the first two cells, right click and select merge cells.
This will result in two columns, 1 of which is 2/3rds of the page wide and
the other 1/3rd wide.
Just tab thro the cells and you find that as you tab out of the last, right
hand cell a new row will be added.
Move to the top left hand side of the table & click on the Table Selector
icon that appears.
From the Format menu, choose the "Borders & Shading" option, and then on the
Borders Tab, click the "None" option.
Format & type the text that you want in each column as required.
Good luck

Subject: [mso] Newsletter Page Layout in Word 2002
Hello All,
How to make a two-column head on a three-column page?
Using Word 2002, I am attempting to put together a newsletter for a
non-profit club. On one page, I want to present two articles. The first
one should occupy the left 2/3 of the page and the second article should use
only the right 1/3 of the page.
I want the headline for article 1 to span two columns and the headline of
article 2 to go into only the right column.
How do I limit article 1 and its headline to the left 2/3 of the page?
Different question: Am I using the right tool for this job? Should I be
using Publisher instead of Word? I don't have Publisher, and I've never
used it, but Word seems a bit unwieldy for page layout.
Thank you for the help.
Ray Shapp
