Author Creating columns in a text box on a web page

How do I create two columns in a text box on a web page? The Column button
does not appear on the Text Box tab in the Format Text Box dialog box. Is my
only choice to create TWO SEPERATE text boxes side by side? Thank you for
your help.

Yep, two text boxes. This in an example of something you can do in a print
document that does not work in a Publisher web document. Some things just
don't convert to html properly.

Thank you, David. I'll stop searching online help now that I know columns
don't work on a web page. This online community is a big help. Thank you to
all the experts out there who take the time to help us newbies and confused
users.

David,

Actually, columns do convert real well. Screen readers go down one
column after the other. Check out
http://www.hamiltoncountyfair.com/page30.html - it uses columns quite
effectively.

You missed an important part of my reply "...in a Publisher web document.".
Another example of the superiority of WP ;-)
