Displaying TfrxMemoView in columns

I have very long and narrow text value for either TfrxMemoView or TfrxRichView. In one column display it takes about 6 pages to display whole text. What I'am trying to do is display this text and only this text in two columns. Rest of report should be display without any column layout.

I tried using Column field in TfrxMasterData or TfrxSubreport, but it didn't work the same way as Column field in TfrxReportPage.

Thank you in advance for any solution.

    what you need to do is to control output by controling the curx cury of the report engine
    read the user manual on using the engine object.

    I have read documentation about TfrxCustomEngine and I can't find information that TfrxCustomEngine give control over printing single TfrxMemoView object. What I need to do is break MemoView text data into next column before it reaches end of page and then after printing second column I need to transfer text to the first column of the next page. And so on.
    I think solution for this would be dynamically creating calculated amount of TfrxMemoView objects and flowing them in right order with help of flowTo property, but if there is simpler way then please let me know.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
