I've had a little bit more time to do a little experimenting last night
with parallel coumns, and it looks like that may indeed be what I need.
I usually get the lesson plans pre-formatted from our headquarters in
WP 5.1 format, and I was converting them to WPWin 6.1 format. It
appears perhaps some of the conversion is tossing in a few HCol and
ColDef codes that are messing up my formatting. I think I can get this
whipped, but it's going to take a bit of editing with Reveal Codes on
to find some of the culprits.

This is an area that WAS throwing me off a bit also. I'm a novice with
WP, but thanks to you fine folks, I'm learning fast!

Now THIS is an *excellent* idea, and would also help if somone else
should need to further edit what *I* have done!

Your thoughts did help indeed! Thanks!!
Cheers,
