Please do define 'it' and describe the 'not working' part.
What exactly have you tried and what exactly has not worked?

probably easier ways but...

Code:
cat << EOF |
100 200
300 400
500 600
700 800
900 1000
EOF

  awk '{
    printf( "%s ", $0 );
    if ( NR % 2 == 0 ){
      printf( "\n" );
      }
    }
    END{
      printf( "\n" );
    }'

output:
Code:
100 200 300 400
500 600 700 800
900 1000
