| 92336 | 2002-10-24 02:15:00 | Create 2 textboxes. Place them side by side like this:|-------|-------| | | | | | | | 1 | 2 | | | | | | | |-------|-------|Type away in textbox 1, once you start to overrun it's size (or even before, it's been awhile since I used Publisher) there should be a little button with a chain or link icon in it attached to the bottom of the textbox. Click it, then click on textbox 2. This links the two together, text will overflow from textbox 1 into textbox 2. If you were wanting a heading to span the 2 textboxes create another and place it at the top, like this:|---------------| | 3 | |---------------| | | | | | | | 1 | 2 | | | | | | | |-------|-------| |

| 92337 | 2002-10-24 02:18:00 | You could then group the whole lot by Ctrl+clicking each textbox and then hitting Ctrl+G (I think) on your keyboard. This allows you to move all three as a single entity. | antmannz (28) | ||
| 92338 | 2002-10-24 03:20:00 | You can do it as antmannz has suggested, with your heading in a WordArt frame above them, or you can create your text box, go to Format>Text frame properties and choose how many columns you want there. Apart from using a WordArt or another text frame I don't know how you'd get a heading spanning across the top of the columns. |

| 92339 | 2002-10-24 03:22:00 | Why not just use a table? Create table 2 columns wide & 2 rows - resize , merge etc until you get the size you want. Cheers Neelyar |
