I'm considering purchasing Word for an Ibm PC, and I need to know if it can
do any (or all) of the following:

1) Multi colums (1-5, although anything over 2 is fluff...)

2) Boxes around text, and also boxes with text in them that outside text
will flow around.

3) Indexing.

4) Refrencing other poritions of text (ability to say "refer to page X",
where X is the page of whatever I'm refering to).


Any answers are greatly appriciated.

Thanks,
--
