Answer 1

I’ve not used Crystal version that old but in all the versions i’ve used you can place the fields in any way horizontally or vertically on the report canvas- so that shouldn’t be a problem.

To format in columns you can go into the section expert and tick “format with multiple columns” in the details section. Then on the columns tab enter the width of your column (to get two columns divid your page width in 2) and make sure “across then down” is chosen.
