--- Comment #11 from Tracey <[email protected]> ---
Steps:
I created 2-column sections of text by selecting portions of text, one after
another, formatting each section as 2 columns (247 2-column sections) with  a
paragraph in between each section (about 1450 pages).
I suppose you could use any sizable body of text and format as I just stated.

After I was done, I discovered that:
215 times (about 87% of the time) the end-of-the 2-column sections of text
auto-format correctly (evenly/uniformly).  The (last page of the section/end of
the section) is uniform and evenly formatted.

32 times (about 13% of the time) the end-of-the 2-column sections of text do
NOT auto-format correctly, but the (last page of the section/end of the
section) is erratic and inconsistently formatted.

I was surprise that it happened and I can not figure out a way to permanently
fix it.  I tried inserting a manual column breaks to "force" uniformity, but in
the end it only appeared to be a fix.
When the document is re-opened, sections (last page of a section/end of the
section) is erratic and inconsistently formatted.

As it is now, some of the end-of-section will not format uniformly and this
makes the document look ugly.

Thanks, Tracey

As a double-check/test, I downloaded Office 2000 and Office XP (2002) and the
end-of-the 2-column sections of text auto-format correctly (evenly/uniformly).

This is NOT a solution for me because I do NOT own either program.
