I am use to using columns in reports.... BUT, i have an
issue at the moment. I generate a multicolumn report
where the data source is grouped with headers and
footers. The main grouping i wish to start at new
columns, I cannot find any combination of headers and
footer, start new coum, before section etc. that does
what i want.

I select across, rather than down (two columns), but
still the overall grouping is putting the releated
records down. and wont start the new group in a new
column, it starts it in a new row. NOT WHAT I Want. If i
change the direction of printing from across to down, the
sub data (within the detail section)is printed across.

if this is confusing, i am confused how to ensure that
the grouped data is printed as a unit in individual
columsn.....HELP
 
In the report's design view, click the toolbar button for Sorting & Grouping.
Click on the line for the field being grouped by and set the Keep Together
property to Whole Group.

Hope this helps |:>)
