Adrian and jettalady are right in their own way. WordPerfect used to be the standard for desktop publishing but they haven't been a serious competitior in several years. OpenOffice is a good solution. Word is expensive.



I haven't worked with WP in years, but, if you have a reasonably new copy (Corel Suite 7 or 8), the interface is similar to that in Word. Up on the Menu BAr, probably under Tools or Insert, you should have the option to put in a table. There may also be a button available for this among those for the Formatting Toolbar.

Determine how many columns you need and insert a table with that many.



Hope that's more immediately helpful.
