OK - I admit it.  I want my cake and eat it too  And as I wrote this email I found it!!!!
 
One of the things I LOVE the most about 7.x reports is that you can have your break headers print on the same line as the first detail line in the group.  The "suppress repeated values" option makes that SOO easy. 
 
So now here's the dilemma.  Let's say I'm breaking on a column "Manager" and the group goes BEYOND one page.  I know that I can get the group header to print on subsequent pages IF I place the header on a SEPARATE line and check off "Reprint Break Headers on Subsequent Pages" on the break screen.  BUT that means that now I lose the ability to have the break header on the line as the first detail.
 
I wondered: is there a way to do BOTH?  Stuck in the way of thinking about earlier versions of R:Base, the Break screen had an option about PAGE break.   So I could have accomplished this in those versions by:
 
1.  Creating a variable rCount = (.rCount+1) which reset AT THE PAGE to 0
2.  Placing a varaible in the deatil line: rManager = (IFEQ(.rCount,1,Manager,' '))
 
But I couldn't find a place to reset a varaiable at a PAGE break.
 
Then I rememered!!  All those great goodies when you right click a field - and after a little testing I found it!  "ReprintOnSubsequent"!!!!!
 
I love 7.x!
