Hello all,

I have a Crystal Report that was originally used to look at MRP requirement for various parts over a user-defined period (usually 2-3 months), grouped according to part number.  When the report was run and the date parameters entered, the report was set up to suppress the detailed order information, and show just the group headers, along with a 3-4 week average requirement for each part.  I now want to take this report and modify it to put the part numbers in a larger font, with the part description below and the calculated average just to the right, so that the data can be used to print labels for storage bins.  The labels come in columns of 2 on the paper stock. Is there a way I can adjust this report so that the groups can run in multiple columns?  I know this can be done for the Details section, but I haven't found a way to do this with group headers.

Thanks in advance.

Format the details to multiple columns->format tab->check "format groups with multiple columns."

You could also start over using a label report instead.
