Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

Columns
 
Word documents can be created using a single
column, two or more newspaper-style columns, or a
combination of column formats. Another type of
column can created with tabs to form tables.
 
In the status bar, the column number shows the
current horizontal position of the cursor,
counting from the left margin.
