Select the Group Header Row,

Now we have built a report from a Template. Using other Templates is very similar,
where a Cheat Sheet can be used.
Creating a Template
Creating Templates can be done in two different ways. One is to create a Template
from the New option under the File menu; the other is to convert an existing report
into a Template.
1. Open any existing report file.
2. Go to File|Register Template with New Report Wizard....

3. Follow the Wizard to create a new Template.
Not much to it! Now, let's take a look at creating a new Template
from scratch.

4. Go to File|New|Template. Call the Template myNewTemplate.
rpttemplate.
5. Under Display Name, use My First Template. Under Description, type
Testing a Template.
6. If you have an image, associate one with your Template.
Now we have a new Template to create reports from. Create any sort of layout you
would like, and save. When you want to use this Template, simply open it and save
it as a Report Design. If you'd like this to show up in the New Report Wizard, do
the same thing as done previously with an existing report, and go to File|Register
Template with New Report Wizard.
