I am having an issue with this report I can get the first line to trap.  But the second line (****) is only associated with the line above it.  I can get the second line to trap but it wants to repeat on all of the ones above it.  I have tried making it a footer, append, and detail.  Nothing seems to work.  I am using the classic mode.

    If I understand your report correctly, you should make your first line the detail.  You would then create a group footer template to trap on the row with the stars.  To prevent that row from being added to all of the above detail rows, you would then select the "Clearing Template" drop down option and choose the detail template you created in the previous step. Just make sure you have the group footer template selected before choosing the clearing template.  Hope this helps.
