    Display images horizontally

    Hi everyone, i have a very huge problem which i don't know how to go about.




    I have 2 tables (Product and ProductCategory). The table product has about 40 records, and every record in that table has an image and
    is assigned to a category.

    Note that the images in that table have a datatype of attachment.


    The issue
    I want to have a form that displays IN AN HORIZONTAL MANNER the images, names, and prices of all products.
    Kindly have a look at the attached picture to understand what i mean.

    Try multi-column Page Setup.

    It seems multi-column Page Setup works only for reports.

    Why would this be of value presented on a form? Why not use a report?

    It is possible to have a subreport display on a form. I have done that but never tried multi-column report on form.
