Can anyone tell me how I can make a report that will have approx. 200 columns?

Can crystal handle this wide of a report?

Thanks in advance!

p.s. I'm using ActiveX/TTX files
 
I think that you want to think in terms of inches, not columns.

A standard report can have 200 columns, but they'll be punishingly small ;)

Crystal is printer based, so the amount of real estate is based on what the printer can generate. A standard laser with a legal at landscape will net about 13.5 inches of usable space, if you don't care about printing, install a specialty printer on the machine, like the HP Designjet 3500CP PS3, this will allow for about 106 inches in one configuration.

How about a plotter? They can handle paper a yard wide or more and I'm sure you can see that in CR with the right printer (plotter) driver.
