Vertical Justification....

Hi,
I have a report that is 3 columns to a page. When the report generates, it does a good job of keeping the records together, rather than spanning the columns (meaning like having the name on the last line of column1 and the rest of their info on the top of column2). However, when it does this (and yes, that's the way I want it), it will sometimes leave blank space at the end of the column (because the entirity of the next record won't fit in the remaining space). Is there any way to even these out so that the columns will ALL be the same length? Vertical Justification. There must be some way I can calculate the columns in relation to each other, pick the longest one, and add an even amount of spacing between records on the other columns so that they will all be effectively justified to each other in length.

Any of this make sense?
Thanks in advance.
