Column Widths

[michaelas]

I want to redesign two separate worksheets to put them on the same worksheet page. One worksheet is materials, quantities, prices, etc. The other sheet is Labor and Hours.

The Materials worksheet uses specific column widths for various data. The Labor sheet uses different sized columns. Ideally I would like to place the Labor section under the materials section.

My question is: is there a way to do this and still maintain the different column widths of both sections (since they are not the same)?

I understand that I could place the "Labor section" to the right side of "Materials," but if possible I would like it underneath.

So in other words if I have a specific width for a column, does that become a "dedicated" width or is there a way to separate it and have a different width below it? I hope this is clear what I'm asking.
(BTW My version of W Office is 2000).

Yes it does, no you can't, and yes it's clear.

Why distinguish between labor and materials? Like materials, labor has part numbers, quantities, costs, and markups or discounts. Different burden rates may apply, and it may be subtotaled separately, but that's no obstacle.
