Page header does not display when using Columns

Can anyone help me with this small problem.

I have a report that is divided into 3 Columns using the page setup, It
displays the report fields in 3 separate columns (Desc & Pg Num) but it only
displays the Page Header on the first column.

Any thoughts??
regards,

Ross

The page header relates to the page, not the columns.

If you want the headings repeated over the subsequent snaking columns also:
1. Go to File | Page Setup | Columns, and uncheck the box "Same As Detail".
Access will then keep the detail section to the width specified in that
dialog, regardless of how wide the report itself is. While you are there,
note down the Width and the Column Spacing values. Close the dialog.

2. Back on the report, make it as wide as appropriate. For example, if you
have 11" x 8.5" paper with left and right margins of 1", make it 6.5" wide.

3. In the Page header section, repeat the labels to the right. You can line
them up based on the Column Width + Column Spacing. The repeat them again
for the 3rd column.
