columns with groups

S

SAC

I want to make a 2-column report that shows the groups in each column like
this:

Group 1 Group 3
Item 1 Item 1
Item 2 Item 2
.... ....

Group 2 Group 4
Item 1 Item 1
Item 2 Item 2
.... ...

I set the columns in page-set but it doesn't format them like this.

Thanks.

How did you set the columns in Page Setup?

How were the columns formatted?

If you set the column snaking to Down then Across and if the
groups fit into a column, it should work the way you want.

Is there a way to make the group header repeat at the top of column 2?
Right it's just blank.

CHeck your version of Access to see if the group header
section has the RepeatSection property. If it does, set it
to Yes.
