I think someone needs to rethink the idea that human beings are going to be able to make much use of a report with 1024 + columns. The idea that anyone could possibly need all 1,024 + all at the same time is absurd, unless they plan on subjecting that data to analysis in Excel or some other analysis tool, in which case maybe it's time to find out what the analysis needs to be and re-think what the report really needs to do. Maybe it should be an ETL process instead that loads a spreadsheet with the data, but a report with that many columns makes absolutely no sense at all.
