    Have you inserted section breaks?

    In Word I'd insert "section break continuous"

    Then two columns with the text you want

    Then insert another "section break continuous"  to return to having normal text across the width of the page.

    The table solution suggested above would also work, but depending on what you want to put in the columns (length of the text), can lead to some formatting issues.

    No I haven't done that, I don't even know what that is🙈 I shall have to see how to do that. So Microsoft doesn't make it as easy then.
    You'll find section breaks with the page break function....
    I don't remember seeing that are you sure it's in the free web version?
    I don't know, I personally use paid for versions of Word - either online Office 365 (if absolutely necessary) or the application version.

    I put in a table with 2 columns - that way you can move with the columns lie and put things in the right place.
