Hi,

I read the manual but it described a lot of situations which are more complex than the solution I was looking for. That's why I found it pretty hard to get the result I wanted and opened a thread.

However, I took some time to experimentalize and almost got the result I want. I managed to fill the table but I can't get it to work with a seperate header. Actually I just want to use a header in my table which doesn't repeat itself on each line. As well I'm looking to add text before or after the merge. By doing this the text keeps repeating itself for each line. Probably the same problem as with the header.

I tried to work with a continous section break but the merge ignores the sections. Any help with this would be much appreciated. I added the document again with the results so far. I used the same dataset as with the opening post.

Regards,
Ruud
