Two column report formatting

Is it possible for the report body to be in two column form while the Report and Page Header and Footer span the entire width of the page?

I have a report that groups items by category, then displays a picture of an item and then item details (there are multiple items to one picture, and multiple pictures to one category). I'd like these groups to print in two columns so I can fit more on one page. I've been playing with the NewRowOrCol properties of each group but it doesn't seem to accomplish what I'm trying to do. I have set the Columns to 2 in Page Setup.

Anyone have any thoughts?
 
I actually figured it out. For those interested, I had the column width in Page Setup set too wide. Once I narrowed that down to about half the page, my two columns showed up quite nicely!
