PowerPoint now allows you to create text columns within a text box, letting you change a long list of text into two or more columns. To do this . . .

1. Select the desired text box.

2. Click the Home tab.

3. Go to the Paragraphs section.

4. Click the Columns button (next to the text alignment buttons).

5. Select either One, Two, Three, or More Columns.

To adjust the column spacing, click the Columns button and select More Columns. Change the value in the Spacing textbox and click OK.
