As far as I know, it's not possible. What you can do is to make two text frames and link them. To make it somewhat easier, make the left one first, then using Item > Duplicate/Transform > Multiple Duplicate, set it for 2 columns, one row, and set the horizontal gap as desired, click Ok, then widen the one on the right as desired. It's also worth knowing that, if your columns will fill to the margins, you can start by selecting to create a text frame, then hold down Shift and click inside the margins. A frame will be created to fill to the margins. Reduce the width of that for your left frame, then proceed with the multiple duplicate as above. If you'll have multiple pages like this, just make copies of the page and link afterward. Greg
