How to group in a table cell with the detail in the adjacent cell ? [message #659486]

Hi,

I would like to have the group header and the group detail in the same row of a table, with the group header in the left cell and the detail rows in the right cell.

Something like :
Category Cars
------------------------------------------------------
Cat1 Value1 for Cat1
Value2 for Cat1
Cat2 Value1 for Cat2
Cat3 Value1 for Cat3
Value2 for Cat3
Value3 for Cat3

Is it possible to do something like that with Birt ? I would like to avoir to concatenate the values of the 2nd column with a carriage return+line feed between each value.

Yes this can be done. The cell containing group header can be set to
drop the group header to the first detail row. To see an example
download this example:
