Hello,

How do I create the following in Format Section "Detail":

e.g.:

Article 1 - 20 pieces |Article 4 - 4 pieces
Article 2 - 10 pieces |Article 5 - 10 pieces
Article 3 - 5 pieces |Article 6 - 15 pieces
etc...

thanks for helping me

The only way I can think of is to use label format, depending on the way you set it up you can get lets say two columns with ten rows each and you can tell the report to print down first and then across.

could you be more specific in what you are trying to achieve and why.

I have to make a list that includes all the article a client has ever order in the company and this grouped by different groups.
Because every list is very large I want to make this on each page in 2 columns so I can use less paper.

The problem with labels is that you don't get page header or footer.

what database are you using ?

I wonder if there could be a way to set the dat in two columns beforehand in a stored proc.

Have you tried simply formatting your data in columns?

Open up the section expert, go to "details" and select the "format with multiple columns" option.
