Style w/Columns

Hello,
I want to make a style with 2 columns. Can someone help me to figure
out how to do that? Thanks.

Go to Format Columns, and select 2.

Jezebel has given you the answer. I'd just like to emphasize that the
only way to *store* columns in a document (or template) is by
formatting part or all of it to have columns; there are no "page
styles" available in Word (unfortunately).

I haven't tried it. But it might be possible to store a columnar setup with
the section break as an AutoText entry. Even if possible, though, I don't
know that this is a good idea, that section mark could carry all sorts of
other information that might not be wanted, like headers and footers. I
guess I would write a vba procedure for it and set that to a keyboard
shortcut or on a custom menu. When I want columns, I just use the column
button on my formatting toolbar.

Well, since AutoText can store "anything", I think you are right.
Like you, I haven't tested, because I don't think it would be worth
the trouble. Anyway, the basic idea of my previous message remains
true: As an AutoText entry, the section formatting would be stored as
content, not as a style.
