Re: double column vs. single column text

[Richard Opheim]

OK, I solved the problem. In order to make the #$%%* thing work, I had to
position
\usepackage{multicol} to be the first thing in the preamble. Otherwise, it
would give me an error message.

 According to something else I read somewhere,
 I was supposed to insert \usepackage{multicol}
  in the document preamble, which I did. Now I get the following errors:

  This work very well for me.
  Do you have installed the multicol package?

Thanks for sharing that with us Richard. Saves the rest of us

Re: double column vs. single column text

[Richard Opheim]

Following the instructions in Help-Specific Manuals-Multicolumn Manual, I
placed the ERT commands \begin{multicols} {2} and \end{multicols} around a
body of text that I wanted to appear in double columns.
The script doesn't run and the following message appears:

Errors:
LaTex Error: Environment multicols undefined.
LaTex Error: \begin{document} ended by \end{multicols}.

Description:
\begin{multicols}{2}
Your command was ignored, etc.

Now why would my command be ignored?
Attached is a minimal example that reproduces the error.
