report columns 3

[JaredTaylor74]

i have a narrow report but it will list several 100 items, is there a way to have the data move over on the same page instead of going to a new page and wasting paper space? like creating a new column or something...


thanks,
Jared

If you go into Page setup
and change the column to 2 should help
But remember to make sure that the first column is on the left hand side of the page

Hope this helps

Thank you for the tip on creating multiple columns in a report. I find that this method does not show page header labels though - so the first column has headings and subsequent columns do not.

Is there a way to show the column headings over all the columns?

Thanks!

Your report width does not have to match your column width. You can set your report width to a full page width and repeat your column headings for each column. This requires you to enter the width of the columns in your page setup.
