Keep Group Together within another Group

[nlaliberte]

I'm using Crystal XI and an ODBC Connection to a SQL Server.


The issue I'm having is with a Group where 'Keep Together' is true is creating a blank page.

Essentially Group 1 is the top group in the report, and each new Group 1 starts on a new page.

I have Group 2 set to 'Keep Together' to prevent the group headers from populating at the bottom of the page with no details below it. However, when the first group 2 is too long for the page, I end up with Group 1 headers followed by a blank page, with group 2 starting on the second page. It ends up looking something like this.

Page 1
Page Header
Group 1 Header
Page Footer

Page 2
Page Header
Group 1 Header (cont)
Group 2 Header
Details
Page Footer

Page 3
Page Header
Group 1 Header (cont)
Group 2 Header (cont)
Details
Group 2 Footer
Group 1 Footer
Page Footer



The functionality I want is for Group 2 to 'Keep Together' unless it's the first sub-group of Group 1, but I can't seem to figure out how to code this as the 'Keep Together' option on the group level is a simple checkbox...

Any ideas?
