    Here is a technique I have stumbled across for getting a multi column list report. Previously I relied on counting the number of rows and putting data into a left list or a right list. That technique suffered from you having to know how many rows you could fit on a page. A pretty poor way of achieving this.

    This technique is completely flexible - want 3 lists per page, 4 lists - easy!  I wont give the game away how it's done. Find attached the report XML.
