Documents with two columns only have one column after update

[Nomis69]

I have a few documents with two columns. There are headings and tables in one column, but the text body is in two columns.



Since a few weeks back (don't know the exact date), those documents always open with one column. I change to two columns, work with them, save and close -- and yet they still open up with one column.

Since especially one document is quite long and complex with tables, illustrations and such, this is becoming a real headache, because the layout is a challenge as it is. Also, of course, it is overall very annoying.

I believe this appeared after an update -- could it be from Office 2013 to Office 2016? I don't remember. I have Office 365 but I work with the desktop version of it.

I do not experience any other problems with my Office 2016 application.

What I would like to achieve, is of course to have Word remember my column settings when I save and close my two columns documents.

Any help is much appreciated.
