Alignment of Multiple Subreports

I have multiple subreports in the detail section of a report which prints out
daily items entered into a case management program which I designed. Most of
the subreports span the entire width of the report, and are lined up one
below the next. However, I am trying to place two such subreports next to
one another. Unfortunately, when I actually print the main report, the data
from each subreport is moved down below the data from the subreport to its
left, leaving a gap to the right where I wanted data. For instance, I would
have something that looks like this:

In Design View


Subreport I
Subreport II
Subreport III Subreport IV

In Print View

Subreport I
"
"
Subreport II
"
"
"
Subreport III
"
"
"
Subreport IV
"
"
"


I hope that I'm being clear about my problem. I want, using the example
above, Subreport III and IV to print next to one another on the main report,
rather than one below the next. They both are set to CanGrow=True and
CanShrink=True because I want to put further subreports below them (as with
the top of the report).

Thanks
 
Are their Top properties set to identical values? If this doesn't work, see
what happens if you place a horizontal line from left to right margins below
subreport II.
 
Top properties are set to identical values. If I place a line between
Subreport II and Subreport III/IV it simply stays above the other two
subreports. If I make its top value the same as subreport III/IV it moves
down below Subreport IV
 
Well, although I'm not exactly sure why it happened that way, I managed to
work around the problem by changing the height of the subreports from 0. The
reports didn't realign itself as it did before when I gave both of them some
height.
