Problem with matrix header (bug?)

sql server reporting services:
hello,
I'm having a strange problem with a matrix headers.
I can't put column headers above each row group header. There is a
merged cell above them, which can't be split. If I have several row
groups,
including Customer ID and Zipcode, I can't put headers above them to
identify them in the matrix. Since both have 5 numerals, they can be
confused.

Does any body know how to solve this?

Thanks in advance,
Roy.

I don't think it's a bug, but an annoyance. ;)

I've run into this a few times. My suggestion is to add a rectangle to the
merged cell, and then add text boxes manually inside this rectangle, to form
the row group headers.
Test in both Excel and pdf to see that there are no errors when exporting.'

:)

Well, I still think its a bug but i'll will try to work around it with
the rectangle.

Not Only Rectangle,you must be sure that perfect alignment should be
maintained and if you see on the layout tab of the report.you can see
small small dots on the layout all over.
Place the textboxes,rectangles with the multiple of 0.125 inch size
that is distance between each dot. and make sure that you did not start
the column,rectangle or table starting between the dots ,but starting
from the Dot and ending from the dot.

these Merging cells not only causes confusion,it will huge time to open
big files

i suggest ,not to leave this issue
