Getting a single group heading in a columnar report

edited July 2002 in General
I want to produce a report with 4 columns which are grouped.
Above the group I want the grouping field and some text. I want this to
appear once as a long single line across the whole line i.e. as one heading
above the group.

Is this possible or do columns force group headings to fit in a single
column?

I am using ReportBuilder 6.03 Enterprise.


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    You can do this by grouping in your main report, drop a subreport into the
    detail band, and create columns within the subreport. This way you can
    display the text across the entire columns span outside the context of the
    columned report. Have the subreport traverse only the single detail record.
