Data Header on every page

I have a report grouped by accounts. Can I generate something like this:-
Joe Blogs Inc... [Header]
--
Client: Microsoft Group Page 1/5
Total Page 1/25
Account No:- 123456 Address :- 123 Infinate Loop
Account Name : MSFT Location :- Competition Headquarters
Name | Date | Item | Code | Desc | Qty | Price
MSFT 6/7/05 123 3456 Netscape 1 $2
________________________________________________ [5 pages later]
Client :- GOOGLE Group Page 1/20
Total Page 6/25
Account No:- 876543 Address :- 678 Google Valley
Account Name : GOOG Location :- Googlville
Name | Date | Item | Code | Desc | Qty | Price
GOOG 6/7/05 123 3456 Netscape 1 $2
--
Page 6 - 25 [Footer]
Above shows 2 groups, each group has a small synopsis before the detail data
begins. I have been racking my brains trying to get RS to do just this. I
intend to have 1 dataset which contains all this data(joined in the sql),
however I have no problems having 2 datasets, 1 for Detail and 2 for Synopsis
if it is so requried - I just need directions on how to join the 2.
Hope ya'll can help...It would probably be best to use only one dataset. It looks like you can do
all of this in a single table with groups and merged columns. If not, then
a list with an embedded table.
