Across then Down with Start position

Hello All,

I am trying to print a label in a single page using multi-column (Two Columns) and  Across Then Down option of Crystal. The result in my report looks like

1 2

3 4

But I have a parameter set ?startposition which takes input and guides report to print its starting position from that point. Lets say for the above data if i input 2 then data should print like

    1

2  3

4

similarly if the ?startpositin value is 3 then output should be

       (first Line is empty)

1  2

3  4

Please let me know if anybody can help on this.
