I don't think you need any programming or .NET to do this. I believe that in Word 2003, in the page setup, you can divide a page into two sub-sections. Unfortunately, I only have Word 2000 on this machine.

Well, I posted the better case to my problem, because it can be 2, 3 or 4 sections per page.

I've tried to use a RichTextBox control where I'll load ms word document data (for testing I been copy&paste data) into richtextbox and tried to break up the printing area, which works fine, but every section gets printed in a different page. I really don't know if it would be possible to print more than one section per page but I'm trying to. Any ideas?
