problem with word document

i can not move the column on a word document I have created.
well I can move it across the page but when I take the cursor off it it goes back to its original position.
I am running vista and office 2003
appreciate your help

I've given this some thought, and I'm not really even 100% sure what you're trying to do. If you could post some screenshots with a step by step of what you're doing (as well as a description of the end goal), I'll have an easier time giving you a hand.
