Default Can a few long, narrow Excel cols be "wrapped" to fill print pag

I have three long, narrow columns of data requiring eight printed pages. Is
there a way that I can print these in "newspaper columns", i.e. have the
three columns wrap once or twice (as a group) to fill the print page before
continuing on the next page? Thanks for any help!!

David McRitchie has a macro that will "snake" the columns.

Personally, I'd copy into MSWord (maybe hitting NotePad if MSWord slows down
when I paste).
Then use MSWord's Format|Column to make life easy.

If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at:
