    <p>Hi,</p><p> </p><p>you can use a scrollable grid</p><p> </p><p>1) create a grid with 2 rows and 1 column</p><p>2) place a table inside the first cell</p><p>3) copy the same table in the second cell </p><p>4) on the first table (first cell) just keep the header of the table</p><p>5) on the second table (second cell) just keep the detail row</p><p>6) on the second table, set the page break to 0 (= no page break)</p><p>7) on the second cell (from the grid) goto to Property > advanced > Overflow > scroll</p><p> </p><p>And that's it</p><p> </p><p>here an example</p><p> </p>

    <p>Thanks GLO_FR, this is a good solution. I have this working but ran into a problem.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>When the table detail section expands wider than the page it creates a horizontal scroll. When users scrolls the data moves but the column headings do not. Column headers no longer relate to data underneath them.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I can add a scroll to the header section but then have two scrolls - not practical or visually appealing. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Any idea how to overcome this issue?</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Thanks,<br>
