My report has one column: surname. I want this one column to snake across
the page. I've looked at columns in page setup. The option to print down
then across is greyed out when there is only one column. I changed the
column number to two to gain access to this option and then changed it back
because I really only have 1 column. All of this to no avail. Can someone
help please?

I need specific help on what to do and where to do it since I've tried the
obvious and it doesn't seem to work. Thanks a lot!

The number of columns is the number of print columns. So if you have one
field printing and you set the number of columns to 3 and down then across you
should see three snaking columns print. Be sure to set the column widths so
you can fit 3 columns in the width of the printed page.
