I have been working with a report which contains 3 group headers, page header as well as group and page footer. I need to somehow add a cover page to the report which will generate each time a new number in the page header comes up. (i.e. A-has B, C and D info, then A-has B, C, and D info) each time A occurs I would need a cover page which shows A's address and other pertenent info. I have no idea where to start. Even a subreport would work, but where in the design do I place it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
 
Found the answer...I needed to move the existing page header to the group header#1 and added the elements for the cover page to the page header by grouping with the function "whilereadingrecords". Then all I had to was hide the old page header.
 
Create a new sub report and put the cover page info into it and put it under Group A footer.
Go to format section expert and group footer section A and check the New Page After option.
