    <p>I was wondering if i could get some help converting this into a 3 column (going down to left) per page report.</p> <pre><code>using System; using System.IO; using iTextSharp.text; using iTextSharp.text.pdf; namespace ConsoleApp { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { Console.WriteLine("-&gt; Creates a PDF file with a block of Text."); Document document = new Document(PageSize.LETTER); try { PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance( document, new FileStream(@"c:\\temp\\column_example.pdf", FileMode.Create)); document.Open(); PdfContentByte cb = writer.DirectContent; float pos; PdfPTable table; PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(string.Empty)); Phrase phrase; float columnWidth = (PageSize.LETTER.Width - 36); ColumnText ct = GetColumn(cb, columnWidth); int status = 0; string line = "Line{0}"; for(int i=0; i&lt;50; i++) { table = new PdfPTable(1); table.SpacingAfter = 9F; cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("Header for table " + i)); table.AddCell(cell); for (int j = 0; j &lt; (i%2 == 0 ? 5 : 7); j++) { phrase = new Phrase(string.Format(line, i)); cell = new PdfPCell(phrase); table.AddCell(cell); } ct.AddElement(table); pos = ct.YLine; status = ct.Go(true); Console.WriteLine("Lines written:" + ct.LinesWritten + " Y-position: " + pos + " - " + ct.YLine); if (!ColumnText.HasMoreText(status)) { ct.AddElement(table); ct.YLine = pos; ct.Go(false); } else { document.NewPage(); ct.SetText(null); ct.AddElement(table); ct.YLine = PageSize.LETTER.Height - 36; ct.Go(); } } } catch (DocumentException de) { Console.Error.WriteLine(de.Message); } catch (IOException ioe) { Console.Error.WriteLine(ioe.Message); } finally { document.Close(); } Console.ReadLine(); } private static ColumnText GetColumn(PdfContentByte cb, float columnWidth) { var ct = new ColumnText(cb); ct.SetSimpleColumn(36, 36, columnWidth, PageSize.LETTER.Height - 36, 18, Element.ALIGN_JUSTIFIED); return ct; } } } </code></pre> <p>I'm really new with itextsharp and can't find any good examples on how to do this.</p> <p>Thanks for any help</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
