I'm not sure this is what you're looking for but I've done this before...
I've had the need to display many fields per record on the screen at one time (no left/right scrolling) so what I did was inserted a container object into the column (actually, it was a container class that had textboxes in the class) and made the row very big so the container class had about 3 rows of textboxes in it. This let me show many fields in one row at one time.
If this isn't what you wanted, I'm sorry.
