Need Help Formatting Report

[DKG]

I have a 3 column report. I want the fields in the 3 columns to line up but
don't know how to do this.

For example, right now my report looks like this: Note where Field 2 is
appearing in Column 2. I want it to line up with the other field 2's in
Columns 1 & 3. In other words, I want ALL the fields to line up in a row so
you could use a ruler and read report data.

Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
field 1 field 1 field 1
field 2 field 2
field 3 field 2 field 3
field 4 field 3 Field 4

I think you'll need to provide more info on the source table/query to help us
understand how you are getting your current results.

I didn't explain things very well. I need to have a Report line up all the
fields. I have 3 columns and there is no problem with the format/layout of
the columns; however I cannot increase the column sizes or things won't fit
on the page. The problem occurs if you try to read the information on a
"line by line basis" or by "rows" -- some field information lines up by "row"
or "on a line by line" basis, some does not.

For Example:
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
Name Name Name This "row" lines up; you could put
a ruler under it
Address * Address * Address in Column 2 does NOT
line up where
City Address City Address is showing up in
the other columns

Try doubling the width of Column 2 and see what happens.
