Default Could someone please help me with using Columns?

I am working on a Word document, and I need to set up 4 columns in several
parts of the document.

In one example, in the first column I need 2 rows of text, in the second
column I need 4 rows of text, in the third column I need 4 rows of text, and
in the fourth column I need 3 rows of text.

I sketched out an example of what I need it to look like in the following

I need to be able to specify the number of rows in each column and the text
shows up in each column.

Can I do this using columns in Word? Or is there another way I can do this?

I cannot see anything at imageshack, but maybe just a four column table will
allow you to do what you want.

Hope this helps.

Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my
services on a paid consulting basis.

You need a four-column, four-row table. You can leave some of the cells
empty.
