I too use this method to quickly and easily adjust reports. It is very
handy.

If a field does not move, it is possible that the field actually was not in
the section that it was on.  I have discovered how this happens.

If you lasso several fields, you can move them to another section.  But
don't dare try to drag just one field. It will move, but the report still
thinks it is in the old section.  This can cause some pretty weird results.
