crystal reports, subreport column heading question 1

[mary555]

I have made a report that has 4 subreports in it. one of the subreports is usally long...it is part of a details b section (I have a separate details section for each subreport). when this subreport becomes more than one page long, i need the column headings (part of Report b header) to show up on each page...how do I do this?
Thanks very much!

Create a formula that is true for all records in the subreport, e.g.:

whilereadingrecords;
1

Insert a group on this formula and choose "repeat group header on each page". Then remove the groupname and add your "page header" labels to this new fake page header.

Thanks! But can you tell me where to put this formula? I'm sorry but this is my first time using Crystal Reports so I'll need more detail! Thanks again!

Don't put the formula anywhere. After creating it, go to insert->group and choose the formula you just created to group on. Make sure this is your topmost group (Group #1). Either go into design mode and click on the gray area to the left of the report for the new group and drag it so it is Group #1 or go to report->group expert->and use the arrow keys to move it into group #1 position.
