Printing group header at page top.

[bgoodway]

I'm trying to get the group header to print at the top of each page. It does print when the group changes. I have tried using the page header, but then I need this to not print if the page header just printed.

I'm using iReport with NetBeans IDE 6.8

 

    <group name="DateBlock" isReprintHeaderOnEachPage="true">

       <groupExpression><![CDATA[$F{DateBlock}]]></groupExpression>
        <groupHeader>
            <band height="26">
                <textField pattern="EEEEE">
                    <reportElement x="130" y="4" width="75" height="14" printWhenGroupChanges="DateBlock"/>
                    <textElement>
                        <font fontName="Cambria"/>
                    </textElement>
                    <textFieldExpression class="java.sql.Timestamp"><![CDATA[$F{DateBlock}]]></textFieldExpression>
                </textField>

      </groupHeader>
    </group>

I'm using an older Ireport, where you can VIEW-->REPORT GROUPS and set the option to print the header on each page, so perhaps look around in Ireport and you'll see the same.

That is what the line:

 

<group name="DateBlock" isReprintHeaderOnEachPage="true">

 

is supposed to do.
