Changing columns on same page

I am typing a flyer and am using 2 columns in one area of the first page but
when I want to switch back to one column for the balance of the page it won't
let me do it. Is there a secret to this? If click the column button and then
1 column it changes the formatting entirely.
Thanks

Insert a section break and then change columns. Without knowing what
version of Word you are using (assuming Word) can't help more.

Yes, this helps. I saw the page break but not the continuous one. Thank You.
