Good Morning and TGIF.
I have a report that I want to use multiple columns in the detail section. The catch is, I only want to print 2 across and 5 down, for a total of 10. The data can run beyond 10 elements. I need to limit the data elements since I have additional data that prints after the detail section that I need on the page. I am not sure how to handle this. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thank you.
Lynn
 
You can try,
In Section Expert, check Format with Multiple Columns.
In Layout tab, set width to 4 in (you may have to adjust it according to your data).
Set Printing Direction to Across then Down

In Details Check New Page after. Condition
Remainder((recordnumber),10) = 0;
