I'm not sure about the deluxe version but on the Pro version it is on the building tab, 3rd icon from the right.

If for some reason columns are not included in your version (by design of the program), you can easily import a column in another format such as .3ds  .obj or .skp and insert into your dwg

and add it to your catalog and always have it for future uses too

Hi Everyone thanks for your comments. I have come to the end of the trial period on the Deluxe version so I played safe by purchasing the Pro version. Columns show up as a tab and I am very impressed by the programme.
