It was suggested that I explain what I did. The graphic's and paragraphs I just did a copy and paste. Adjusted the size and location of the graphics as necessary. For the columns I had to press enter a few times past the intended insertion point for the columns. This was the main key. Otherwise I got stuck in the columns and could not get out to add more. I copied the columns into LO using "edit - paste special - unformatted text". This gave me a single column. I then highlighted the column and did a "Format - Columns" and chose 2. This gave me 2 even columns which I could edit. I then clicked under the column in one of the places I had previously clicked to get out of it.

Thanks again for everyones help.
Gary

When I copy and paste into libreoffice the data in the columns is in
rectangular boxes that I can not do anything with. How can I put this in
text format?
Thanks, Gary
