i'd like that BRIT automatically split table to 2 colums, for ex.:

Till now i have 2 pages:
+---------------+ <- page size
|John 10|
|Mary 10|
|Lucy 10|
|Alf 10|
+---------------+ <- page size
+---------------+ <- page size
|Brit 10|
|Zen 10|
| |
| |
+---------------+ <- page size

But i want to have it like this:
+---------------+ <- page size
+John 10 Brit 10|
+Mary 10 Zen 10|
+Lucy 10 |
+Alf 10 |
+---------------+ <- page size

It's one and the same table. Num of rows
is various.

Hey,

I got a question similar to this.
How can we get the 2 chart reports on the same page.

Thanks,
Sudha

Hi Fremen,

At present, BRIT does not supprt to split table to 2 or more colums
automatically.
However, you could achieve the similar preview result by a method as follows
(a little bit tricky ^-^):

1. Insert a Grid with 2 columns / 1 row
2. Insert a table to the first cell of grid, and then copy the table and
paste it to the 2nd cell of the grid.
3. Set the Map rule of the table in Property editor (The attached snap.gif
shows how to set the map rule and the preview results corresponding to the
settings). In the Set Map rule dialog, leave the "Then display following
value:" field as blank.

Please see the attached Test.rptdesign file for more information.

Hope it could help.
Cheers.

Regards,
Nina

Thanx, i was thinking about sth like "Example 2", but is there any
function/property to get number of rows returned by Set ??
it would be cause then I can write: "row[0]+1 Larger than =

(peopleSetNumOfRows/2)"
