>>Word's table feature is pretty, but I have found no way to ensure that a
group of tables have the same format without writing a macro.<<
Umm; forgive me for an obvious question, but have you tried Copy and Paste?

>> Because
tables are the only to format parallel columns in Word (WP has both
tables and parallel columns), Word is nearly useless for my style of
writing.<<
If you are referring to wrapping columns, as in a page with two columns of
