Has anyone been able to create CS Textworks reports that include section headings that repeat only once? By section headings I mean, for example, underneath, say, a heading "apples" there would be an alphabetical listing of all apple varieties, under a heading "bananas" all the different varieties of bananas, etc. CS Textworks has sort key levels, but haven't been able to figure out how to these can work to solve my report design problem.

You may just need to make your Record box into a Sort Header box.

In the Form Designer, select the box that contains your Sort Key Level 1, and choose Report Options>Headers and Footers. Select Sort Header from the picklist, and click Change to Header/Footer.

(Note: The Sort Header box shouldn't contain any of the fields you want to be displayed for every record, just those you only want to repeat once for each sort key.)

Note that if the field you're sorting on has multiple entries you may want to check "Exploded Sort" when you specify the sort order.
