Displaying lists horizontally

I am writing a report that displays small lists of data. The lists themselves are 2 inches wide or so and since the lists repeat vertically, I am essentially wasting a lot of space on the right side of the report. Is there a way to display lists horizontally on a page (but still within the page width)?

Thanks!

Did you get anywhere with this as I need to do the same? I would have thought that this is a pretty obvious requirement and should be easy to do, but I'm having alot of trouble.|||If your report is quite simple, you might be able to use the matrix layout instead of the table layout, and have your list values as the columns.|||Thanks for the reply. Will the matrix keep within the width of the page for long lists? i.e. will it snake onto a new line when it hits the page border?|||As far as I know, that's not possible unfortunately. The best bet might be to use SQL to lay the data out exactly how you want it before you put it on the report.

displaying images horizontally - not vertically

I am trying to display image data stored in a database field using SRS 2005.
The image data is employee photos and I can get them to display in one column
straight down the report using a List control.
Is there a way to get them to display in 3 columns sorting across the page?
This would be like a High School yearbook layout...
Like this...
Pic 1 Pic 2 Pic 3
Pic 4 Pic 5 Pic 6
Instead of like this...
Pic 1
Pic 2
Pic 3
Pic 4Hi,
I'm not sure if this is done differently in SRS 2005 but in SRS 2000, you
can set the Columns property on the Report Page. Just click the page and
then in the Properties window, specify the number of columns needed (3 in
your case).
Hope that helps.

display fields vertically and horizontally

hello, i just started using crystal reports and have been trying to get the report to display the same fields as shown below.

2006/02/11 2005/11/09 2006/01/01
James john sandy

2003/08/16 2007/01/22 2006/01/01
Jane fred martha

2004/12/10 2005/05/03 2006/07/03
phil diane roger

The data is all come from the same fields (Start_Date) and (first_name) .

is it possible to display the data as such using crystal reports?

regards,

peter.Try this.
Place first field in the details section. In section expert check the box "Format with multiple columns". Set your options on layout tab.

Next, right click on details section and select "Insert section below". Place your second field in this section. Repeat the steps from above ("format with multiple columns", etc).

Hope this helps.
