The text will wrap by default if the multi-column section ends in a
Continuous section break. If the section break is not necessary, you can
remove it. Otherwise, you need to enable the Compatibility Option (Tools |
Options | Compatibility) "Don't balance columns for Continuous section
starts."

How do I set text wrap in a two column document so that the left column
fills
completely before the test starts to go into the right column? Sometimes
this happens; sometimes the two columns are "balanced" with equal amounts
of
text with neithe column filling the page from top to bottom.
