One of my users threw me for a loop with this one... maybe someone out here on the forum has an answer. I don't think he really needs page headers... so much as a way to force the group headers to print on the second page. This seems possible, but I couldn't find anything that mentioned it in any of my books.

Here is the e-mail I received from the user...

"I put a report into a report as a subreport. When I edit the report that I used as a subreport, it has page header groupings. However, once it is put into another report as a subreport, all groupings appear except the page header groupings. Since my subreport is over a page long, the header prints only on the 1st page and the 2nd page has no column titles. Is there a way to make the subreport have page headers?"

Thanks for any info... :)

When a report is imported into another report as a subreport, its page headers are converted into report headers. The main report's page headers are printed for all pages, including the subreport pages. You can "fake" a page header in a subreport with a group header, by creating a "group" that will contain all the data in the subreport, and setting the group header to "Repeat on New Page"
