Newspaper stykle 2-columns for a Table in RS.

Hi ,
I can't find a possible way of doing this at present
If I have a Table element containing 3 columns, how can I get it to display
the following way? Is it possible? If I get 10 rows, I want 5 rows in each
of the following. If there are say 7 rows, I'd want 4 ros on the left and
3 rows on the right.
Required layout follows....
ColA ColB ColC ColA ColB ColC
How feasible is this or am i expecting too much?
Thx,
PaulI have an example of multi column layout at www.MSBICENTRAL.com It is in the
downloads section... The only issue is that the column setup MUST apply to
the entire body of the report ( this is an RS restriction.)

Newspaper Columns

Does anyone know how to create Newspaper Columns in Reporting Services? I am
trying to create a company address and phone number directory.
Thanks for any help you can offer.In the Body section of the report, open your properties window. There is a
property under layout called columns. Set the number of columns here.
Then, if you want 2 3" columns w/ 1/2" between them, you would set your
report width to 6.5 and your body width to 3".
