Creating Multiple Columns in a Document

            In a document a page can be divided into two or three columns just like in magazines and newspapers. We can easily
            arrange the text into columns before or after adding the text. The steps are as follows:
            Step 1:  Select the Format → Columns...
            Step 2:  Select the Columns=3 and also fill in the Width & Spacing section, if it is required.

            Step 3:  Click on OK button.


























                    CREATING AND WORKING WITH TABLES

            The representation of data in the form of rows and columns is called a table. A table can be created with one row and
            one column also. The intersection of a row and a column will make a cell.

            Some of the examples of tables are list of friends, student details, employee details, etc.
            We can create table in the given ways:

            Using the Table icon    on the Standard toolbar.                              To Open Insert Table dialog
            OR                                                                            box:
            Select the Table → Insert → Table.                                        Short key

            At the time of creating a table you can specify the number of rows and columns      Ctrl  +  F12
            you wish to add. Click on OK.
