Click on Format > Page. On that Page Style panel, go to the Columns tab and make your selection there.

Isn't making Columns an element of Page format a deficiency? How would one then set up, say, a 2-column block at the top of the page and then later a 3-column block?

Hang on here, you are missing the whole point and power of OpenOffice.org in the first place?! The way you should be looking at this if you need to mix the number of columns at a page level is by creating separate page styles e.g. '2-column page' and '3-column page'. These are obviously setup with the 2 and 3 columns and then you simply add a page break and choose the style you want for the next page. A simple solution to a simple problem :)
