Couple of questions for 2 column report

edited March 2005 in General
1) I have the report showing in two columns but is seems to be printing

1 5
2 6
3 7
4

and I was just wondering I could make it print

1 2
3 4
5 6
7



2) Each detail is simply a name and address.


Joe Smith Jane Doe
123 Main St. 456 1st Ave
PO Box 123
Here, ST, 12345 There, ST, 65432

I was wondering how would I go about moving the city, state, zip line up
if the second (or first) address were blank?







I am using Delphi 6, Report builder 6.03. I have Report builder 7.03,
but haven't put it into production yet and I see that both of those are
a few versions behind.

    Hi Daniel,

    1. Changing the DetailBand.ColumnTraversal property to ctLeftToRight will
    output data horizontally across each column in ReportBuilder. This is a
    published property and is available from the Delphi Object Inspector or from
    the Page Setup dialog in the designer.

    2. Take a look at Demo 33 (dm0033.pas) located in the \RBuilder\Demos\1.
    Reports\... directory. This demos shows how to "squeeze" addresses using
    TppMemo objects.
