Spreading columns across pages

I'm trying to create a report that contains a large number of columns - too many columns to fit across the top of a single page. The rows in my report can have different heights, depending on the amount of data in the row (ie. CanGrow is set to true).

I have tried creating two pages in my report, and placing a data band on each. This works fairly well, but if a row grows on one but not the other the rows don't line up when the two pages are placed next to each other.

How can I split the data onto two pages, making sure the rows are the same height on all those pages containing data for a row?

Unfortunately in the current version of the report engine, the CanGrow option is not working for the Columns on the DataBand. It is true as for the DownThenAcross and for the AcrossThenDown as well.

In the current version of the report engine CanGrow property works only for the Columns on page.

Now we are working on the new report engine and we hope that we shall realize this feature there.

We shall post a message here when the new engine with this feature be ready. We are awaiting the first beta version of that engine in two weeks.

Thank you.
