Making text flow from one column to other

    Hi,
I need to have text in one table to flow from one column to other like this:

col1          col2
I need    |  in the
the text  |   next
to go on|    column.

Is this possible?

You cant do this using tables, but you can specify that your body region be 
split into multiple columns. e.g.

<fo:simple-page-master master-name="dualcolumn">
<fo:region-body column-count="2"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
