I have to create a lot of reports all based on the same template (report header, logo, ...). The only different part is the details section. From time to time the template will be changed so ideally such a changes schould be automatically applied to all reports. I am new in Crystal and I found two solutions.
1. Use a template. Very good but i couldn't find a way to reapply updated template to all reports automatically.
2. Subreports. Good as well but I couldn't find how to repeat subreport page headers on every page in this case.

Can anyone help me in any of these problems or suggest better way to do this formatting?
 
If you are wanting a page header for your subreport, this can be done by creating a group that includes everything in that subreport. Then select [Change Group] and check [Repeat Group Header On Each page].
