Too many columns to fit on one page.

edited February 2009 in General
I have a report that has 11 columns containing data per record in a
detail section(which is too much to fit on one page for this particular
report layout).

Is there any way to print the first 6 columns on one page and the last 5
on a second page for each record?

Many thanks,

Tim Pepper

    To add a bit of detail. I have records A to Z each of which have 11
    columns of data.

    Let's say my report allows 10 records per page.

    On the first page, I want to display columns 1-6 for records A-J.
    On the second page, I want to display columns 7-11 for records A-J.
    On the third page, I want to display columns 1-6 for records K-T.
    On the fourth page, I want to display columns 7-11 for records K-T.
    On the fifth page, I want to display columns 1-6 for records U-Z and on
    the sixth and final page, I want to display columns 7-11 for records U-Z.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks,

    Tim Pepper.
