I got that done in relatively less time using XML....copy report to clipboard, open it in notepad, replace all listFooter> with listHeader>.....open report from clipboard and save it over the existing report.

Hi All:
My employer wants the grouped list report to have a '+' sign next to it. The user can see the group total when the sub-list is collapsed and the user can click the '+' sign to expand the sub-list.

Thanks in advance.
