[Guest]

I created a 6 column report that is working fine, now I am adding a subreport
it only fills in one column per page not like the main report. Need help.

It is not clear from your post whether you are adding a subreport TO a
multi-column report or using a multi-column report AS a subreport.

If the latter a multi-column subreport MUST use "Across, Then Down" snaking.
It cannot use
"Down, Then Across" because it has no idea where the end of the pages are on
the parent report.

If you make the subreport control have a fixed height (unusual) then "Down,
Then Across" will work, but not when you have CanGrow = Yes on the control.
