Answer 1

right mouse button the Details section. select Section Expert..., in Common tabs, there's a Format with Multiple Columns

Answer 2

This can be done by splitting the details section in to columns.

• Right click the Details section in Design view and select Section Expert.
• Check the box Format with Multiple Columns An extra tab on the top right will appear called layout.
• In the Layout tab set the Width to 4.5cm (for Portrait) and ensure that Across then Down is selected.

This will split the details in to columns of 4.5 cm wide.

Hope this helps.
