2nd post - is this so hard or am I not clear on my need?

Hi All,
If I have a Data Access Page generated (save as) by a report (in Access)

example: name & phone number

the page displays as a long list that needs to be scrolled. Is there a way to
display the list in multiple columns allowing more information to display on
a single screen?

I can do this in the report but when the Data Access Page is generated (save
as) it reformats to single column.

I believe Data Access Pages are very much like forms, I have never found a
way to format a field on a form to display in columns as you describe, while
you can do that with a report as you have said

Data Access Pages do not have a column property. That means that the answer
is No.

I don't know anything about Data Access Pages but if they can show
Flex Grid ActiveX controls then a Flex Grid Control will probably do
what you want. Have a look at -

where there is an example of what you are trying to do.
