Dealing with missing headers on mult-pages pages

[Guest]

I know that there is a page header property that allows you to only show the
page header "Not with Report Header"

A common way to deal with this is to have the field headers with the 'page
header'
BUT - if the field headers go AFTER a group, like 'Department' that disects
each set of detail records, it would be nice to have the field headers -
AFTER the page header.

I'm trying to find an event or a method that will let me simulate that same
effect with the page header (don't appear field headers are there):

What I would like to do is have some 'overflow' header labels that only show
up if the records overflow into the next page. -
In most normal cases, these 'overflow' header labels will not be visible
because the regular header labels that only appear at the top of a short list
would need to show.

I'm certain this is not a unique problem - and maybe someone has dealt with
this before. The reason I would like this 'Overflow' header to be available,
is because I have the regular header seamlessly attached to the detail
portion, and whenever the detail portion 'overflows' ---there's no headers on
the next page.

Any suggestions would be truly appreciated...Thanks!

Another option that might be less than obvious is to put the group header
field into the Sorting and Grouping dialog twice (i.e. on 2 rows.)

Set the Repeat Section property of one of those to Yes. You can put the
headings you want on a new page there, but leave the headings you only want
for a new group in the other one. By swapping the order of those two in the
Sorting 'n' Grouping box, you can affect which one shows first.

that's the answer. Especially the 'repeat' part - Thanks!
