Hi

In Crystal it was possible to "Underlay the following section" i.e. Display
the group header over the top of the detail for a group or display the report
header over the top of the table within the report.

Is it possible to do this in SQL RS?

I have also been tring to create a watermark. A text field that is visible
on every page of the report behind my table, can anyone assist on how to
achieve this?

Thanks for the help in advance.

Electric,

Re: watermark - you can set a background image for the body, header or
footer of the report - they will appear behind the data in the report.
Possibly you can create a simple bitmap of the text you'd like to
appear and use that?

You can put a textbox behind the grid. However, all cells must have
Transparent background to see it. Otherwise, any colored cell will fully
overwrite the text. Change the order of the textbox to Send To Back.

Can anyone help to use "Underlay following Sections" of Crystal reports in SQL Server Reporting Services.
