Totally agree. I probably over-stated it when I said columns in Word
are not your friend. Some software vendors do their standard contracts
in newspaper column formatted documents. Actually, in reviewing and
editing those documents, columns are better than are tables. I have had
documents where someone got the bright idea of putting paragraph numbers
in column 1 and the text in the various cells of a two-column table.
Automatic paragraph numbering is definitely better, using columns.
Although I've never deliberately formatted a document using columns, I
do concede that they have their place.
For a grocery list, however, I'd still go with a table.
