Follow this process in order to create a band (formerly called a sub-band in older
versions of Report Designer), which allows you to group several report elements into
a single area.
-
Drag and drop a band element into a layout band.
-
Using the resize handles, change the size of the band to fit your
specifications.
-
Drag and drop an existing report element into the new band and position it according to your preference.
-
Drag and drop other elements into the band as necessary.
You should now have a layout band containing several report elements. It can be
resized or moved anywhere in its parent band, or cut-and-pasted into another
band.
