How can I get more colums into the Layout?

Hi.

I have a report/layout, that has one repeating field horizontally at the top, listing different cars like Mercedes, Mazda, BMW etc.

Vertically on the left I have a list of the attributes like

Electric Windows

Aircondition

Aluminium Wheels

etc

If a Car has the attribute the report shows "yes" in the relevant box.

(The report has a header, footer and a subsummary but I think thats irrelevant to this question)

Problem: My report has room for six cars across and it prints in Portrait.

Now I want to be able to list 10, 20, or 30 cars horizontally, but still print in Portrait.

Can Filemaker divide the report vertically like this

------------CAR1 CAR2 CAR3 CAR4 CAR5 CAR6

attribute1

attribute2

attribute3

This is maybe 3 pages.

and then start again with

------------CAR7 CAR8 CAR9 CAR10 CAR11 CAR12

attribute1

attribute2

attribute3

This is maybe 3 pages.

and then start again with

------------CAR13 CAR14 CAR15 CAR16 CAR17 CAR18

attribute1

attribute2

attribute3

Can Filemaker actually make a report like that? I have made many Layouts in my life but never one like that.

Is that possible?

Thanks
