multiple-column subreport outputs only one row per page

I have a subreport which I have finally succeeded in making into a two-column
report. I want the end result to look like this:

NAME DATE NAME DATE
1111 1111 2222 2222
3333 3333 4444 4444
etc.

My problem is that for some reacon it it printing only two records (both on
the same row because it's two column) per page. How do I tell it to continue
on the page until it runs out? I have tried setting the CanGrow property of
the subreport on the main report to YES but that did not work.

In the main report, the border of the subreport takes up the entire page for
all pages after page 1. In the subreport, there is no border, but it appears
to do the same thing, basically start a new page whenever it starts a new
row. The subreport itself is not working correctly, so I suspect the error
is in the subreport and not in the report.

Labels exist in a group header to get them to show up apove each column.
The group settings are below:
Group Header: Yes
Group Footer: No
Group On: Each Value
Group Interval: 1
Keep Together: Whole Group

Within the subreport, some subreport properties which I thought might be
relevant are:

Auto Resize: Yes
Auto Center: No
Grp Keep Together: Per Column
Border Style: Sizeable

The Page Setup:Columns within the subreport are:
-Grid Settings-
Number of Columns: 2
Row Spacing: 0"
Column Spacing: 0.5"

-Column Size-
Width: 2"
Height: 0.1646"
Same as Detail: False

-Column Layout-
Down, then Across

I know that everyone says that it should be Across, then Down, but here is
the resulting difference:

Down, Then Across results in:

Page 1
NAME DATE NAME DATE
1111 1111 2222 2222

Page 2
NAME DATE NAME DATE
3333 3333 4444 4444

etc.

Across, then Down results in:

Page 1
NAME DATE 1111 1111

Page 2
NAME DATE 2222 2222

etc.

How do I get it to look like the example above and print more than one row
of data per page???
