Mark, just to expand on what Biff and others have said, I'll just add that
when you need to take total control of a report's behavior, data _null_ is
an option you should look at. This option assumes that you're okay dealing
with non-proportional fonts and that you don't want to use ODS (someone
correct me here, but I'm thinking this is a future enhancement). Data
_null_ is pretty much a by-your-bootstraps approach, but in turn you get
enormous power as Paul has mentioned. For example, we had a client that
was very particular about having a customized layout including
variable-length subtotal headings and strict paging requirements. Data
_null_ gave us total control of these items plus the flexible framework to
add any new features that arose.
