A few table questions
Hi!
I have 2 questions:
1. I have a table, and I want to print the amount of rows (without empty ones) at the table header.
I added a total, but it only works if I place it in the table's footer.
Once I put it in the header, it writes "0" (because the next data band wasn't calculated yet?)
How can I fix this?
2. I wanted to add the table a header (a row with column titles, in bold).
Is the only way of doing it is adding "header" data band? (it's not so convenient cause I need to
copy a table row to the header, to make sure the columns' sizes are the same in the "header" data band, and in the "data" data band.
Is there a better way?

1. Do not put totals in the header. They can work in the footer only. If you want totals in the header, you need to make your report two-pass and use script. The example can be found in the demo program, the "Script/Print Total in The Group Header" report.
2. You may insert a new row in the table (select the row, right-click it and choose "Insert row above" menu item).
