Next: A tough one? Two page template with separate headers and rolling.
From: bmowell on 31 May 2010 02:09 Hi, I've tried to find out all day if this can be accomplished: I am in the audio/visual industry and am trying a new script/outline format for video and audio production. I'd like to carry around a letter sized binder. When I open the binder I will have two letter-sized pages staring back up at me, each with bordered tables containing columns and rows. The table on the first page (on the left) will have headers that designate items 1-5. The table on the second page (on the right) will have headers that designate items 6-10. When I look at the two facing pages in my binder it will be as if items 1-10 read from left to right across the entire two pages. When I make revisions to a script and insert a another row, I want the template to push the bottom row in all columns (on both pages, items 1-10) onto two NEW pages - pages 3 & 4! Basically, it's like the two pages are really just ONE page in a rolling template. Is there a way to do this? I've seriously thought about just saying to heck with it and printing all ten columns in landscape mode on a single 11x17 piece of paper and then just cutting it in half, but I'd prefer not to have to use such a large format printer.

It would be a lot easier to do this in Excel, with the columns sized so that there was a page break between columns 5 and 6 and on the Sheet tab of the Page Setup dialog, select the "Over, then down" option in the Page order section of the dialog. Inserting rows will then result in the output being modified in the manner that you are after. -- Hope this helps, Doug Robbins - Word MVP Please reply to the newsgroup unless you want to obtain my services on a professional basis. |
