i'm a bit new to this, but i'm trying to create a report that runs top to bottom with grouping on the left side and then when it gets to the end of the page it starts again on the top on the right hand side of the page. for example
a page would look like this:

ID Product order amount ID Product Order amount
================= ===================
1 xxx 5 4 zzzz 1
2 bbb 3 5 llkk 2
3 xxx 5 6 ccnn 1


how would i do this?
 
In the section expert, turn on the "Format with Multiple Columns" checkbox. A new "Layout" tab then appears...

- Ido

view, e-mail, export, burst, distribute, and schedule Crystal Reports.
 
IOW,right click the details section and select format section or section expert, then select the Format with multiple columns and a new tab will appear above calledLayoutnext tothe color tab.

Set the width to 3and the gap to .5, and leave the Direction at down the across.

Should getwhat you're after.

You can also specify format group with multiple columns if need be.
