Lets give an example. I want to move the second numbered whole paragraph (2. a-d) to the second column. In your recommendation, I put the cursor in front of "d. Columbus" and merge it and apply manual column break. The output is this: "e. Which country" instead of "2. Which country".
In addition; it does not matter whether the pointer is in front or back of "2." There is another way. put cursor in front of "d.Columbus"; enter twice; insert manual break/column break, and hit backspace once. F. YAZICI 1. Which city a. Berlin b. Istanbul c. Ohio d. Columbus 2.
