I have a field that holds the lyrics of a song. When printing/previewing, I want the lyrics to be all on one page. But some of the songs get cut off.

Is there a way to split the text into two columns on the same page?

You could do this with a couple of calculation fields, something like:

LeftValues ( text ; n )

for the left column, and:

RightValues ( text ; ValueCount ( text ) - n )

for the right column - where n is the number of lines that will fit on your page.

You could also split them in half, using Ceiling ( ValueCount ( text ) / 2 ) as your split point.
