I have a text to format that has 3 columns. I want to submit text, independent of line constraints, into these 3 columns (each column is about 25 char wide), and still retain ^B (reform) functionality. Is there a way to do this ?? Here is a sample of what I need. This is column one and stops ' This is the second column and ' third column at the "'". I need to fill ' starts to the left, and is ' always short this column more than column ' independent of column 1 ' two and need the format (^B) ' in most cases ' for justification purposes. ' ' As you can see, I need total column independence. I have tried this and when I use the ^B command, it treats the entire text as line oriented. Any hints ?? Many thanks in advance. Walt -------
