This section will be in the middle of the document and I am using word 2003. I don't know how to create the second bulleted column. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.     Was this post helpful to you?         Reply |   Top           Suzanne S. Barnhill 4/27/2006 9:59 PM PST   Answer   You have three choices: 1. Tabbed columns. These can be used if each bullet point is only a few words (that is, no bullet point wraps to the next line). Set a tab stop a little to the right of center and another half an inch to the right of it. Tab to the first stop, insert a bullet manually (using Insert | Symbol), tab again, and type your bullet point. 2. Parallel columns. If some of the bullet points wrap, but you want to keep the two columns aligned, you can use a two-column table. 3. Newspaper-style columns. If bullet points don't have to align horizontally, you can flow them separately by using columns; this requires section breaks. -- Suzanne S.
