Can groups 'overlap'?

Hi, I'm relatively new to Crystal, and using Crystal Reports 7.

What I'm trying to accomplish is being able to have one group 'overlap' another. For example:

Group 1 - group and sort by Member Name
Group 2 - group and sort by Member's Doctor (which can change)

When it prints, it should print on one line, which would look like:

Member: John Doe Doctor: Dr. Johnson
(misc. data)

Member: John Doe Doctor: Dr. Smith
(misc. data)

As best as I can offhand figure out, I have to create two groups (one to sort and group by member, one to sort and group by doctor), then print the member on one line, and the doctor below.

Is there any way around this?

Thanks in advance, Jeff
 
Nothing stops you from including the Doctor information in the group header that is based on Member Name.

Or, more like what you describe, include the member name on the Doctor header. Ken Hamady

Thanks for the help. I don't think I had a good example, but I think I have found the solution.
