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.
