I'm back wrestling with this monster again. Went to SoftMaker for awhile and it had some nice features, but I just couldn't get a handle on it either and since I've spent so much time trying to tame Word (and gotten some things done), I figured it was time to go back.

So, I have a doc and the Word 2010 In Depth paperweight and I've been trying to get columns in a doc I'm working on. I tried manual insertion, section breaks, the whole thing and couldn't get it to come out right (incidentally, I wrote this thing in TextMaker and saved it in Word, then copied the text portions into another doc.). Then I found the part on selecting the text and letting Word do the work. Glorious!

However, when I do that, the first letters of the list items in columns 2 thru 6 are chopped off! I live such a pointless life. It's really depressing.
