Place Two Tables In Columns

Posted by on Apr 6, 2006 | 7 Comments

Microsoft Word allows you to display your text in columns. What you may not know is that you can also display two separate tables in columns. This allows you to put two tables beside each other on a two-column page.

The first thing you need to do is create your two tables as you normally would, one below the other. The width of each table needs to be resized so each one is less than half the width of the page.

Finally, select both tables (you can do this by holding down the CTRL key as you select each one) and click the Columns button on the toolbar. Move the mouse pointer to select 2 columns. Now your two tables will appear adjacent to each other.

    But when both the tables are selected, the Columns button on the toolbar is deactivated. There should be a particular pattern/style when selecting both the tables. I’m still figuring it out. BTW, I am using Word 2003 SP3.

    Isn’t it possible to use all THX certified equipment at home and still have sub-optimal sound? So much depends on placement of speakers and adjustments of equilization and delays.
