Hi everyone,

I'm using word to write research notes for a dissertation. I have made a table composed of two columns - a large one on the left for writing the bulk of my text (quotes, images etc), and a small one on the right where i make notes (page numbers, reminders etc).

The problems is when I want to put a note in the right hand column I have to press 'enter' or 'backspace' a whole load of times to avoid shifting any text which is above or below it. Is there any way I can fix text in the right hand column so it corresponds permanently with my bulk text on the left?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
