Hello,

I need some tips on formatting the report when exported into PDF or TIFF. I want the report to to have the exact same order how they appear after running. But for some reason the columns are not appearing the way I want. Here are some details:

1. The first column is a slot number, such as 01 - 30.
2. 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th columns are fixed.
3. From 6th column onward there is no limit on the number of columns and it can get increased depending on new data entry.

Say for example, there are a total of 15 slots and 18 columns (6th onward).
This is how the report is currently exported into the PDF as shown below.

I need information on Page 3 to be Page 2 and information on Page 2 to be on Page 3.
Basically, I want col-6 through col-12 appear for all slots, slot-1 through slot-15
and then col-23 through col-18 appear for all slots, slot-1 through slot-15.
Just like it appears when the report is run. Is that possible to achieve?

---------------------------------Page 1--------------------------------------------
col-1 col-2 col-3 col-4 col-5 col-6 col-7 col-8 col-9 col-10 col-11 col-12

Does anyone has any idea how to achieve at the PDF export/TFF/Print?
