Problem with Subreport

I have a report that has most of the fields in the Page Header section and a
SUBREPORT in the detail section. Everything works pretty well except that
that last part of the Page Header section has a text control with the Can
Grow property set to YES. The problem is that the data in the subreport
(again, the subreport is in the detail section of the report) seems to
prevent the text control in the main report page header section from
growing. Unless I adjust the position of the page header so that there is
enough space to accomodate the largest possible size of the text control,
the subreport data overwrites the lower part of the page header even though
it is in the detail section.


Anybody know how to make this work properly?

Much thanks in advance.
 
I don't believe Page Headers (and Footers) can grow. Their size is what it
is. You could try add a new primary sorting and grouping level on the
expression:
=1
Set it to display a group header. View the =1 Group header section
properties and set the Repeat Section property to Yes. Use this section
rather than your Page Header.
