As a fairly new poster you will find much useful information in the Writer FAQ, the Writer Tutorials, the up to date Writer guide and the Writer Manual. When a pop-up window opens, click the Help button for extensive help on that function - it is often more comprehensive than the manual.

Please avoid mixing problems in a topic. You already have another discussion running about graphics.
Is your problem with columns fixed?
