You can do whatever is appropriate.

But if you separate fields into different columns, your life will be much, much
simpler if you ever want to do anything with that data (besides printing).

For instance, if you wanted to add the values in column B, you could use:
=sum(b2:B99)

It would become a very ugly formula if you kept everything in column A.
