Running EXCEL Office 2003.
I have a 4-column Excel list of recorded movies: Disk#, Title, Staring, Rating. In Excel, I add newly recorded movies at the bottom of the list, and then sort the list alphabetically by movie title. When I print the list, it is several pages long. Question: Is there a way to print this list so that the the 4 columns will wrap to 8 columns on a page thereby reducing the number of printed pages by half? So, I would like to see printed page 1 (for example) displaying all movie titles "A" thru "C" wrapped into (2) 4-column lists, and then continue on page 2 starting with title "D" in the left-most 4-column list. Thanks - Rich |

There is no built-in way to do that in Excel.
You have to paste the data into Word and use Format | Columns -or - Build your own method with VBA code... http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel....htm#snakecols -or - Try my commercial "Special Print" Excel add-in with its "Side by Side" utility. (free three week trial) It creates 2, 3 or 4 up column groupings across the worksheet page (from single or multiple columns) and maintains data continuity across all pages and accounts for any header area. A new sheet with the column arrangement is created, your original data is not affected. Just email and ask for it. Remove XXX from my email address... james.coneXXX at comcast.netXXX Please include your real name and geographic area. -- Jim Cone Portland, Oregon USA (Special Print can also do "rows to repeat at bottom") "TucsonRich" wrote in message ...
