Removing blank spaces in a report

Yes, I have this report with numerous fields in it that are set as
collapsable and have something like ="Title: "+[Title] put in for a value.
Basically what I get is close to the look I am desiring except the problem is
that it leaves a big gap where the fields used to be with white space. Is
there a way to remove the gap so it would look like.

Title:Field Opened
Title:Field Opened2

and not like

Title:Field Opened






Title:Field Opened2

Or is there maybe a better way of doing this altogether?

If the fields are set to "can shrink" and the detail seection is set to "can
shrink" then this should not happen.

You might try this...

Make each control's vertical height zero or one pixel. Squeeze them all
together real tigh and set each of them as "can grow = true".

Sir,
That fix worked beautifully. I had both the fields and the detail
section set to can shrink and can grow and nothing happened. Once I set the
fields to one pixel thin and put them on top of each other, everything worked
like a charm. I would think that the fields would print on top of one
another, but this was not the case. It drops the fields down one when one of
the fields gets expanded, which works out perfectly. Although if I ever need
to go in and modify it, it might be a little of a pain, since the text boxes
are one pixel thin now, but I can definitly live with that.

Thanks
