Jim,
I created a small sample database (TwoColumnMemoReport.zip) and uploaded it to the AccessSamples folder for our group.
It won't necessarily break the memo field into equal length columns since it relies on counting characters, not lines.

I created a small sample database (TwoColumnMemoReport.zip) and uploaded it to the AccessSamples folder for our group.
It won't necessarily break the memo field into equal length columns since it relies on counting characters, not lines.
