What's the question? Happy to try to help. If it is complex, might require consulting time and I can help with that as well.

Hi Caren,

I'm in the design/layout menu for bills and I'm wondering how I can add a field column?

It seems to be locked. Do you know how to insert and name as to where it will stay in the layout?

Thanks.

Right click in the area where you want to add and choose to add a column.

I know how to do that however I can't insert a descriptive field. It;s locked

In that section you can only add columns or rows. You could add a text field within that by clicking on the text icon in the toolbar and then bringing that to the column/row header where you want it. For more flexibility you would need to add a customizable section before or after that section to add text. 

My guess is that I can help fairly quickly in a remote section but there would be a charge for that. 

I did it! thanks for your help.  ita just too time consuming trying to problem solve.  I'm working in 2012 with Office 10
