hi..apperciate any help..thx anywys...
i need to display the values of a field as columns instead of rows, so i
went to "page setup" and set the number of columns to 44.
it worked fine and the contents did fit on one page.
However, when i saved and tried to re-open the rpt, i got the following
error when i tried to display the results:
"2 errors occured when u loaded the form or report --
you loaded a form or report that has controls or properties that Microsoft
Access doesn't recognize and will ignore."
the report was reset to ONE column and data displayed in rows instead of
multiple columns.
if i define around 25 columns, it works fine...
BUT i need to define 44 columns.
is there a possibility to fix this ?!
thx

thx a lot, maybe i will use 2 subreports
however, is it possible to add fields (on main report) say on the right of
the subreport and make sure that they appear even though the subreport might
vary in Width?!
thx again.

thx again
however, how can u move controls when u can't know wht is "width" of the
subreport. the subreport varies in width depending on the # of columns shown.
does this work?
can u get the # of fields multiply by the width of the field in subeport and
then draw the other controls on the right of subreport using line ft???!
thx
regards, marwan
 
Please take the time to use proper grammar. Find your shift key and type out
complete words. It's not that I am too old to understand, it's just that I
expect a certain amount of effort on your part.

How does your subreport end up with varying numbers of columns? Seems to me
the only way that this can be done is in design view. If so, why do you need
code to move anything on your main report?
