Reports - Sorting and Grouping Header misalignment

I have a report with a group header, X, and then some other fields in
the detail section, Y and Z. Is there anyway to make X appear to be on
the same line as Y and Z?

Looks like this right now:

X
Y Z
 
Justin,

Do you mean you only have one Y and Z value for each X value? You can
put the X control in the detail section instead of the X-Header section.
But then, if you have more than one Y/Z for any given X, the X value
will be repeated on each record shown. If this is the case, and you
want the X value only to show for the first of the associated Y/Z
values, you can set the Hide Duplicates property of the X control to Yes.

On the other hand, if there is only one Y/Z for each X, there seems no
reason to have a grouping for X anyway?
 
Hi Steve, thanks for your help.

I have more than Y/Z for one X in some instances. For example, the data
in the report looks like this:

-----------------------------------------
X
Y Z
-----------------------------------------
X
Y Z
Y Z
Y Z
-----------------------------------------
X
Y Z
-----------------------------------------

However I want it to look like this:
 
Justin,

I already explained how to do this. Sorry if I wasn't clear. Put the X
control in the Detail section of the report, and set its Hide Duplicates
property to Yes.
 
Sorry for the double posting. It hadn't worked the first time but has
now. Thanks for your help Steve.
