Kimber, In case no one has any better ideas, I've just looked over CathyAnne Murtha's MS word 2010 textbook and notice that she explains how to create columns using tables. Your guess was a good one. I realize you're using Word 2013, and I wouldn't feel comfortable posting a copy of her text. Since I've never done this task myself, I can't explain from experience. But if you're willing and able to lay out the cost of CathyAnne's Word 2013 textbook, it might well be worth the price. At the following link, you'll find a webpage where you can contact her to confirm that her 2013 book provides similar instructions. To place an order, you may have to do a little more searching, but you'll be on the right website. I have no connection with her or her company other than having purchased her textbooks:

I need to format a document with two columns. For the sake of example let's call them cause and effect. Obviously, or maybe not so obvious, each effect in column B is associated with the cause listed on that same line in column A. What would be the most jaws friendly way to format the document so the associations are clear both visually and via jaws? Would tables be useful? If so, I need a little tutorial on setting that up. I am using word 2013 and jaws 16 though I do have access to jaws 17 if need be. Thanks in advance for any help.
