tables in Front Page

In Word you can insert a column break to control the eveness of text from one column to the next. I don't have that luxury in Front Page (2002).

I have a page (newsletter) that has 3 columns (I put a narrow one inbetween) - column 1 - narrow column - column 2 - narrow column - column 3.

OK... What my ultimate goal here is to have the page view the same to people in 1024x768 and 800x600 screen resolution. If I adjust the columns so they look even to me (hi res), they look off to someone viewing the page in 800x600 screen resolution (middle and 3rd columns height are not the same).

Is there a simple fix for this? I really would like to know. I am a whiz at doing this in Word but not Front Page.

Height for a table should not differ between columns. Best
thing to do is set your table width in percentages to resize
automatically
eg column 1,3,5 make 25%, columns 2,4 make 10%
or you could use padding in the table and eliminate columns
2,4 and set 1,3,5 to 33%
