Details sections displaying in wrong order - crystal-reports

I am using a database source as a text file, and display the information in six sequential Details Sections:
details1
details2
details3
details4
details5
details6
details1 had too many fields to display on a single row, so I added the last 3 remaining sections.
Now when I generate the report, the fields display in the wrong order. details4 shows after details1 as both has the same formula. Then details2 and details5 show, then details3 and details6. The report gets messy.
Is there any way where in I can display all six sections in their original order?

How to generate a page in report for each data row using SSRS

I am working on developing an SSRS report.I have a table in which student name and 6 subjects marks is stored in each row. My problem statement goes like this ---> lets say if 10 rows of data is present in table then I want to create report card/ marksheet for each student in new page but inside a same report. (I.e. 10 pages in one report). Then convert the report containing 10 pages to PDF format and save it in some folder.
Can anyone show some possibilities to achieve my problem statement.
Thanks in advance....
Usually you'll want to use a List object to separate your report by student. You would group the list by student in your report. Then set a Page Break in the List with the location to Between each group so that it separates each student into a separate page.
Then you can put charts, tables and other object inside the list and it will repeat with the list group (in your case, each student).
MSDN: Lists
In this report I made below, the List is highlighted in Red and groups by each site. It just has a table inside. When it's run each site gets it's own page with a list of their people.
Keep in mind that a List is actually just a Tablix with only one data cell - with the column and row headers removed.

Show column heading only in drill down

I have created a crystal report with a number of items in an invoice. I have grouped the details based on the invoice number & suppressed the detail section with Drill-Down.
The problem is I need the column headers to be displayed only in Drill-Down mode. Not when it's displaying just the summaries. How can I hide the column headings ?
I have found several sort of hack like solutions, but is there a standard way/feature in CR to do this?

Fields being tripled in the section details

My report receives a populated dataset with with only one item in the products list, yet the Crystal report prints 3 items in the product list.
I tried to remove all fields of the details section, yet the CR prints 3 empty lines.
This is insane. There are no fields inside the details section, yet CR prints 3 lines. Should I start looking for silver bullets?
EDIT: I'm importing the data to a dataset using a xml. There is no database behind and I'm sure that my dataset contains only one product.

crystal report - repeat group header across multiple column

I have a report that has 3 columns and it is grouped by a value that i display in the group header. The report is setup to run down then across.
If the details span across multiple columns, how do I repeat that group header on the next column.
I have already checked "repeat group header on each page" in the group expert.
I have already checked "format groups with multiple column" in the Layout tab of the details section.
It will not let me insert a text object in the group header of each column.
Not sure how to do this. I could write a formula to only show at the top of each column, but not sure if there is a function to find out when the second column has started.
edit
What i want is below
Group Header Text Group Header Text Group Header Text
Detail Values Detail Values Detail Values
Detail Values Detail Values Detail Values
I would like to have the Group Header Text show at the top of each column. Doesn't matter if its the start of a new group or in the middle of the group.
thanks.
okay, I have your solution, the field, that you are grouping by , just place it on to the page header and it will repeat itself on every page until the columns of that group are finished.
Lets say you are grouping by Employee Names, just put the Employee Name field on to the page header and it should solve the issue, I jsut tried it and it worked, thanks.
There is Previous() function available in formulas that allows to show-hide a Text Object based on the change of specific field value from previous to current record.
Is this what are you looking for? Can you edit you question drawing a sample af what you have and what you want?

Addid Static Report Titile on Crystal Report

i have faced some problem , when i want to display some static Title after i have displayed a few number of Rows . for Example , the first 4 rouws on crystal Report has header"Training " the next 4 rows mmust have "Education " Report Header.
i am trying to display the report using by calling one Stored Procedures any one who can help me please??
You could insert a new detail section above your current detail section and have the new section only be visible based on record count or some value in the data. Add a new section in the details, Format Section->Suppress and enter a formula controlling when the new section is visible. For example, a running total field named InspIDCount and this formula in the suppress section ({#InspIDCount} mod 5 <> 0) will cause a blank row every 5 records. The new section could contain a formula to display the correct "title".
I think I misunderstood your question. The number of rows for each type is probably not constant. A better way to handle this would the to insert a group into your report if the data is not already grouped. Group by the record type (Education, Training Etc). You probably want to suppress the group header but show group by footer. The footer could display a field from the database showing the type or it could display a formula (string) based on the record type. It would only take a few minutes to give this a try.
