Default Running alphabets at left margins and pinpoint cites at right margin

Hi,



I consider myself more than a beginner in Word. I'm comfortable with Styles and make use of them a lot. But this has me stumped:



It's a document with running alphabets at the left margin. The body has 2 columns. The text takes up about 3/4" while there's a vertical space on the right 1/4" for citations.

The document uses a table to achieve the 2 columns of text and citation. It seems a crappy method as every new paragraph requires a new row AND it requires the use of paragraph marks to achieve paragraph spacing to align the citation at the right with the text on the left, which kind goes against the idea of proper formatting.

As for the running alphabets on the left, I can't figure out how it's done. Turned on the formatting symbols: there seems to be nothing unusual.

Does anyone know how the alphabets are done, and if there's a better way to achieve the pin cites without using a table?

I've uploaded the document with just the running alphabets here: http://www.box.net/shared/xe0latdnis

Stumped...

Cheers,
Jay
