Dear all,

I have a dynamic columns report which can be printed using A3 or A4 paper
size.
The columns are defined by user, from 1 column to 15 columns.
Is there any way to control the report width programmatically ?
Thanks.

I see no one has answered yet. I hesitated because I don't actually know the
answer, but I suspect it's not possible.

At best, you'd have to open the report programmatically in design view, change
things, save it and then run it. It may be possible, but I don't think practical.

I guess if it were me, I'd have 2 report templates, one wide and one narrow. Then,
depending on the number of columns requested by the user, you'd know to use the
wide or narrow one. Could be you're trying to do too much with one template.
