Hi

I have a dataset that contains around 55 fields that I need to create a report for. I have figured out how to create a drill-down off of the 1st field in the record by grouping the remaining fields under of it.

But all of the remaining fields still take up a lot needless space in the report. Is it possible to have the remaining records setup as child members to the first field and divide them into sub-groups?

So if my first drill down are employees with a (+) to their left, I could have groups under each employee like location
that would have the street, city and state fields; and another like department that would have stuff like their supervisors name, phone number, building number and etc.

I have attempted this using the table object but it seems as though I don't be the effect I'm looking for because there is only 1 designated "Detail" row in the table.

Thx

You can have multiple rows for each section. (To add a new row, highlight your existing row and right-click to access the menu). So you can have two or more detail rows. You can also merge cells like you can in Excel.
