Tom, I think you need either page mode or a reporting table for this arrangement, if 
you want to keep it properly indented. If I read your post correctly, you do not want 
header/footer to show where there are no grandchildren, just the single line, but 
where there are grandchildren, you want them indented less/more with the child total 
showing where the child should appear. 

It would probably be easier to use a reporting table for this.  Give me a shout if my 
message is unclear.
