N-Up Newspaper Columns

[Eirik W. Toft]

Hello all. I'm still a bit new to PB, and I'm attempting to do
something that I've seen a lot of posts for. Basically, one of two
answers would help me out tremendously.

I'm working on creating an n-up formatted newspaper columns style
datawindow. I understand that the only way you will see the columns
is when you are in print preview mode.

I've been able to accomplish this so far by creating a label
datawindow, which always comes up to the user in print preview mode,
and viola, I have an N-Up formatted datawindow full of results.

Here are my two problems:

1. In print preview mode, the cursor keys (up and down in particular)
cause the datawindow to scroll in print preview mode. I have tried a
number of things, including add a message.handled =true and other type
things in my event I assigned to the DW as a pbm_dwnkey (forgive me if
this isn't the exact spelling, I am using the right function tho..)
Is there a way to not have the window scroll when the user presses up
or down arrow?

2. How can I display data in an N-Up newspaper format to the user,
and not be in print-preview mode? This would also help because labels
are drawn with borders, and the borders on my datawindow are a bit
distracting.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction,
or give me a hand figuring out this thing.
