Filler Material For Report

Alright, I'm still a complete retard, but here goes:

I have a report that has multiple columns. Now this is a government report, so it has to fill in the rest of the boxes. So if I have only three records, it shows on the 3 records but no additional boxes are drawn. I need them drawn, again because it's a gov. report. The way I have the report is as follows


*************************
_____ ______ ______
| | | |
|HDR. |HDR. |HDR. |
|_____|_____|______|
*************************
_____ ______ ______
| | | |
|Data |Data |Data |
|_____|_____|______|
*************************

Then the page setup is for 2 columns for the page. The page header is the column information and will be duplicated on the second column when it goes across I assume (This is a sub report). All of this information is being passed in by query.

I need it to make 42 boxes. If I have only 3 records, is there any way to get the other 32 boxes to draw reguardless of data?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
 
Actually, I've changed it to be a whole report. No need for a sub report
 
Sorry if the last post seems confusing, but I still can't get it to fill in. Any ideas?
