Word calls these side by side paragraphs.  In my Word for Windows manual
there's a whole section on side by side paragraphs.  You create them with
two column tables.  You can specifiy the width of each column,
say the first column 2" and the second 4".  Word treats each entry in
the table as a paragraph.  You can take existing paragraphs and paste
them into table fields.  Techniques like this are also handy for doing
two or three column indexes (if there's an easier way to do multi 
column indexes, I'd like to know before I result to more manual digging...)

Are you sure you Read The Whole F%$@#! Manual?

Try page 325 (side by side paragraphs) and page 361 (tables) for
additional help.
