Current Selections in Header for Reports

Does anyone know if it is possible to have the header in reports show you current selections? Or is this not possible?

Very simple ...

Just drag the Current Selection box into the top of the report.

When using a multi-page report, you can drag it into the header to show it on every page.

I often helps to also include a few list boxes to show not just what is selected, but also what is NOT selected.

You can drag into the top, but i am referring to the Page Header... You cannot drag into the header

Use a multi-page report then.

Perhaps this is a little dated for a response (but better late than never), but I overcome this problem by using a Text Box instead of the Header:

1) Create a text box using a syntax, like the one below (added benefit is that you can specify only the important selections - sometimes you don't want to show everything in the Current Selections Box):

='Sales per region:'  &GetFieldSelections([region])& ' , ' &GetFieldSelections([date])

2) Reduce the margin allowed for the Header to zero

2) Drag the text box into the report in place of the Header

You will have to do this for each page, but once it is in place, it is much easier to produce many reports under the same topic.

Hope this helps,
