Crystal Reports : Use Multiple Columns in a Report

This is one of he features I wish wasn't buried. It's very handy to be able to print several rows of columns (think mailing labels).
The way to do this is:
1. Right click on the Details section
2. Select "Format Section"
3. On the right-hand side, check the box labeled "Format with Multiple Columns"
4. Notice the Layout tab that is now available. Click on it
5. Here you define how wide to make your columns. Use the "Width" textbox to supply the desired width in inches.
6. Okay you way back out.

You'll now notice that your Details section is split into however many columns Crystal can fit on the page using your Width from above.
