I would like to have a report on 1 page and have a table extend beside itself instead of going to the next page if the data fill the table on the first page. The table is skinny so I can fit page 2 beside it. I will be able to fit all the data in 2 pages so I will not need more than 2.  
How would I extend the data beside the table instead of extend to a new page?

If you select the base 'table' element, there's a "Table Repeat Count" property (if you're on a sufficiently older version, it might be named "Column Count"); if you set that to `2` it will "wrap" the table horizontally once before adding pages.
