The Data Report is pretty limited and does not have the functionality to create a multi-column report.
What you could do is manually create a recordset which repeats the fields for the number of columns you want to print. For example, if you want a list of CompanyNames in 3 columns the recordset would need to contain
Company1, Company2, Company3. Then use 3 labels on the report.
Ok, thanks! Unfortunately that won't work for me because I need to do a sort based on a calculation of several different fields. I was hoping there would be a way to display several columns like you can do with an Access report.
