    same recordset subreport side by side

    I inherited an access application and i need to have the same recordset of a subreport in two areas side by side, in same page. For instance, I retrieved 45 records, I have in left side of page, place to 20 records and on the right side other 20 ( so the 21 to 40 records will be the right side ). The other 5 will be on the next page.
    Thanks

    Solution

    Hi RuralGuy,

    The solution is inside the link I posted but I can resume ( I am using access 2010 to access the 2000 mdb) what I did

    0 - the header and detail must be designed to fit in half page
    1 - opened the subreport in a new window ( mandatory?)
    2 - dragged the right side of the subreport till the last column of the page ( the header and detail remain fixed at left side )
    3 - choose Page Setup tab
    4 - clicked "Columns" and inside I choose "2 columns"
    5 - choose Column Layout ( Note - in access 2000 you must use the sugestion in the link I posted )

    "problem I did not try to solve - the header appears only in the left side )
