Wrap text in the detail section

How do you wrap the text of a report that contains jsut a
text box in the detail section that is counted
sequentially, so it could be number 1-24 in the left
column and 25-50 on the right. Then allow the rest on
the following page. This would help cut down on the size
of the report being printed. See example:

1. Smith 25. Howard
2. Jones 26. Mahoney.....
3. Miller
and so on

In report design, use the File - Page Setup menu item to
specify the way you want to report to appear in columns.

If you need to sequentially number the details in the
report, add a text box with the control source expression =1
and set its RunningSum property to Over All.

Thank you your suggestion was right on the mark and it
worked great in the report!
