Answer 1

Text in newsletter-style columns flows from one column to the next on the same page.

Switch to print layout view (print layout view: A view of a document or other object as it will appear when you print it. For example, items such as headers, footnotes, columns, and text boxes appear in their actual positions.).
Select the text you want to format in columns:
An entire document

On the Edit menu, click Select All.

Part of the document

Select the text.

Existing sections

Click in a section (section: A portion of a document in which you set certain page formatting options. You create a new section when you want to change such properties as line numbering, number of columns, or headers and footers.) or select multiple sections.

On the Standard toolbar (toolbar: A bar with buttons and options that you use to carry out commands. To display a toolbar, press ALT and then SHIFT+F10.), click Columns .
Drag to select the number of columns you want.

Answer 2

If it's just the article than you just need to have material to write.

If it's the format that your looking for check out these instructions from MS themselves.

"Today, the only instance in which text columns are still the easiest solution is when you need what are called newspaper columns. That is, content that automatically flows from one column to the next when text is added or removed.

To create a document with newspaper columns, click the Columns button Button image on the Standard toolbar, drag your mouse pointer across the number of columns you want and release the mouse button. Then, as you come to the end of a column, your text will automatically start in the next column. As text is edited, the flow between columns automatically adjusts."

Answer 3

Text in Newspaper columns flows from the bottom of one column to the top of the next column.

A.) To add vertical lines between columns, click Columns on the Format menu. Select the Line between box. To see the lines, switch to page layout view.

B.) To adjust the space between selected columns, drag the column marker of either column to a new position on the ruler.

C.) To specify the number of columns, select the text, or click the section you want to format.In page layout view, click Columns on the Standard toolbar, and then drag to select the number of columns.

D.) To change the width of a selected column, drag the column marker on the ruler to a new position.

1. Go to Page Layout View
2. Click where you want to start the new column.
3. On the INSERT menu, click BREAK.
4. Click COLUMN BREAK.

Word moves the text that follows the insertion point to the top of the next column.

Answer 4

Well if by writing a newspaper on Word, you mean like in columns, you just have to go to the top menu bar where it says "Format" and then there should be a button that says "Columns" and then you can decide how many you want and how wide they need to be. Thats how i do it.
Hope this helps!
