It's not that easy.
Please carefully read the columns manual, linked from the above page.
If you want to change between e.g. 2 and 3 columns, you can either
define a columnset with 6 layout columns and put your text in spans of
3 or 2 of those layout columns or define two different columnsets like
in the examples in chapter "Spanning and More".
Principally you should be able to use the old columns mechanism and
change the number of columns in-page, but I don't know if you can make
it work reliably.
