Columnar Section

By abhishek shukla -
The layout of a columnar section consists of column headings with the associated column values listed under the headings. Each data field is a column, and each record is a row. The column heading is linked to its column data, and the two cannot be disconnected in the report. If one is deleted, the other is deleted also. Because you cannot change the column format, the columnar section is the least flexible detail section.
