fit long but skinny table on one page

[needinfo]

I have a table that is about a page and a half long, but narrow enough that
it could fit on one page if I could figure out how to "wrap" the rest of the
table like a new column. Does anyone know how to do this?

Make sure the table's width is slightly less than half of the width of
the text area between the margins. Then go to Format > Columns and
select the Two icon.

It's easier still if you create the columns before the table, as then the
table, when inserted, will automatically be the full column width.

Make sure the table's width is slightly less than half of the width of
the text area between the margins. Then go to Format > Columns and
select the Two icon.

That is true, but I assumed from the description that the table
already exists.

Me, too--just putting the suggestion out there for "next time" or for those
(other than the OP) who might do this in the future.
