How can I organize into columns large amounts of info? No tables, makes it too large...and using <PRE> I have no choice of fonts. Other ideas?

Ben Gordon, Tom,

In IE you have several options you  can place the content into a 
scrollable <div> like this
<div style="width:150px; height:150px; overflow:scroll;">
<pre style="font-family: IceAgeD;">this is the text that 
I wish to display How Does it look now?</pre><div>
Or you can use an <iframe> with the content in a table of the source 
page
<iframe src="your_content_page_name.htm" width="25%"></iframe>
if it needs to be browser cross compatible then you will probably have 
to use some type of javascript textbox  you can get some more info on 
that here

As far as not being able to change the font in <pre> that isn't correct 
the font can be changed by using CSS like this
<pre style="font-family: IceAgeD;">
or by embedding the style in the head section
style>
pre {font-family: IceAgeD;}
</style>
