The table object can do almost everything!
It's got a separate area for everything – header, data row, group header, group footer and footer and a general table layout. It can all be separately configured. Columns can be pulled to the width you want or adjusted precisely in the dialog window. Overlapping titles across two columns, multiple page and multiple columns in tables: it's all absolutely no problem! Distracting data rows are simply blended out during design. Use the Designer to easily group your data. Multiple data lines enable your program to switch between different layouts.
