    Hi Mike,

    Yes, it seems due to a typo, the DetailBand.ColumnBalancing property did
    not make it into the RB help. I will fix this for the next release.
    Below is the documentation we created.

    --

    TppDetailBand.ColumnBalancing

    When set to true, the report engine generates columns to fill a minimum
    number of rows (minium amount of page space). For example, if there are
    3 columns and 9 records, then 3 rows will be used, rather than
    generating a single column of 9 rows and two empty columns.

    Note: This property is ignored when ColumnTraversal is ctLeftToRight.

    Note: When ColumnBalancing is true, the DetailBand will automatically
    switch to a PrintHeight of phStatic. Dynamic height detail bands cannot
    be used with ColumnBalancing True.

    Best Regards,

    Nico Cizik
