Report Header

[JoeF]

I created a report that has several columns of information. For example product, retail, and cost are written in the page header and the detail secion of the report contains the information. I also created a grouping header by year and placed some summary statistics there. The only problem is that the headers for the detail information come in above the grouping totals, which makes it a little difficult to read. Is there a way to have the grouping header go above the page header?

Example of how it looks.

product price cost

average price: 9.99
# products: 2

doll 9.99 4.50
book 9.99 4.50

I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to do based on your posting. But have you considered moving the information from the page header into the page footer?

You might try moving the column heading labels into your group header, under the summary information. This will cause the column headings to repeat for each group change. You'll also need to set the group header Repeat Section property to "Yes" to repeat it on each page so that each page gets column headings. It may be a toss-up in appearance as to whether the column headings once on a page above the summary information is more/less attractive than multiple sets of column headings per page below the summary information.
