Hi Slaisne, I was trying hard on your point and could not make out any... I tried to put 1-10 columns in subreport1, 11-20 columns in subreport2. I kept these two subreports in column1 and column2 in main report, and print order is horizontal. Got the error "SubreportÂoverflowedÂonÂaÂbandÂthatÂdoesÂnotÂsupportÂoverflow." I think, using multiple columns do not help as the main report divided vertically so reducing the width for each subreport. Can you provide sample jrxmls used to solve your problem? Thanks, Vijay
