Default Splitting Document - Columns

Hello,

Simple question I think but I can't get it to work.

I have a document which is meeting minutes. I want to have the body of the minutes on one side (left) and then a space so I can note actions on the right (narrower).

I split my doc into 2 columns and sized the widths as I wanted but it doesn't behave how i want in letting me then type into the right hand column. I selected "column" within the break option but then the body of my minutes started to appear in the right (narrow) column.

Help it must be simple but I'm missing it.

Thanks



Ed

Use a two column borderless table instead.
