Report left to right

Is there a way to create an Access report that would take the field 'names' and expand the records from left to right (text vertical) rather than from top to bottom? The other alternative would be to bring the data into Excel and have it populate pre-formatted cells from left to right (across columns). I'm using Office XP.

Thanks in advance!

Click to expand...


What do you want to happen when there are more records than
will fit on a page?

You can design the report with the fields one under the
other, make the report very narrow, and then use the File -
Page Setup - Columns menu item to specify how many columns
you want on a page (be sure to check the Across Then Down
snaking option).
