Richard and Rick,

Guess I should have said I don't want to do math ;-).

Since the software already performs this math to create the columns, why can't it display the answer?

 By selecting the Object Properties item from the Graphics menu, I can
 see the width and height of a text frame, the number of columns it
 contains, and the gap between those columns, in the Customize Text
 Frame dialog. I could presume that if those items are correct,
 theoretically the column width is correct. But where can I see the
 actual width of the columns to confirm it?

If there are multiple columns, they're equal width. So:

(Text Frame Width - (Side Head Width + Gap) - (Columns Gap x (Number of Columns - 1)) / Number of Columns = Column Width

HTH!
