How do I set up two columns of bulleted information in word?

[Guest]

I am trying to present information in a section of a word document in two
bulleted columns alongside of each other. This section will be in the middle
of the document and I am using word 2003. I don't know how to create the
second bulleted column. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

You have three choices:

1. Tabbed columns. These can be used if each bullet point is only a few
words (that is, no bullet point wraps to the next line). Set a tab stop a
little to the right of center and another half an inch to the right of it.
Tab to the first stop, insert a bullet manually (using Insert | Symbol), tab
again, and type your bullet point.

2. Parallel columns. If some of the bullet points wrap, but you want to keep
the two columns aligned, you can use a two-column table.

3. Newspaper-style columns. If bullet points don't have to align
horizontally, you can flow them separately by using columns; this requires
section breaks.
