Forum:Need Help with Template Layout

I am very, very new to this. I need to make a template that has a field (text box) on the left, and another on the right. It seems like all the boxs run the length of the screen. Is there a way to have two boxes, that will be filled in by the user, side-by-side?

Thank you, any help is appreciated.
