Hi,
i have to design a report like this layout:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/47586998/layout%20A.bmp

i do this:
i create 2 groups, the first for process, the second for Level and then i insert all in the detail.
My idea is to set the rowspan of the process and level based on the value; but the rowSpan doesn't work, so my result is this:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/47586998/layout_B.bmp

How can I get the same result?
Thanks in advance

What you're looking for looks like a crosstab's row dimension area. You might try using a crosstab.

Hi Michel,
i try use a crosstab, but seems to have a non-linear development of data, my development instead is a simple table layout with the difference that the first column and the second are groups, and the values should have the rowspan instead of repetition.
It's possible to do this?
Thanks

Take a look at this report. It uses your data in a csv and has two groups on a table, then utilizes the drop feature on the group element cells and also has the vertical alignment set to middle. Hope this helps.
