3-Column MasterData on 0 Column Page

edited March 2005 in FastReport 3.0
Hi,

I've asked this question before but I haven't managed to work it out yet.

I have a report page with multiple MasterData sections. One of the sections is 3 columns. How can I make the data flow vertically through the columns instead of horizontally?

At the moment, the data flows horizontally,

Record1 |Record2 |Record3
Record4 |Record5 |Record6

Instead, I want the data to flow vertically,

Record1 |Record4
Record2 |Record5
Record3 |Record6

I can't set the Page Colums to 3 because that will then apply to each MasterData section rather than just one of them (unless there is a setting I don't know about).

If this question can't be answered here, ho do I get official support for the product?

Many thanks,

Andy

    Band does not have such option, it prints only left-to-right and then top-to-bottom. You could use simple script that changes Engine.CurX and Engine.CurY to move current position.

    OOh! That sounds interesting I'll take a look at that.

    Is Engine a global object or do I need to declare it?

    Thanks Alex,
