Group headers
Creating group headers
Whenever you create a group, a subtotal, or a summary, the program creates
both a Group Footer (GF) section (where it places any subtotal or summary
value), and a Group Header (GH) section (where it automatically places the
group name/header). Group Headers are useful, even necessary, if you want
your report data to be clear and easily understood. Though the program
creates a group header automatically, you may find that you would like to
change or modify the header to suit your needs.
In this section, you will learn how to create the most common kinds of group
headers.
Standard headers
A standard header is a block of text that is used to identify each group in a
rather generic kind of way. "Customer," "State," and "Monthly Orders" are
all examples of this kind of header.
While the header is somewhat descriptive ("Region Sales Figures" means
it is a regional group), you never know what region is in the group without
first looking at the details in the group.
