You can set the group headers to have the Overlay Following Section turn on. That way the three group headers appear on the same line. Or you could just put all the fields in the last group header. Just because you have a group section for a certain field, you don't have to put the data in that header and it will still group fine.

i did try  but then how about the details section . the header for the details in PH.  i want the header to appear only when i click on the startQTY .
 
i tried putting in the details section, when i preview the header tent to appear more than once for example if i have 6 startQTY  the header appear 6 time
 
i want the header to appear only when the click on the startQTY and should appear once any idea of how to do it ........

Put the header in a separate details section from the data and in the suppress formula for that section, try:
 
({table.partId} = previous({table.partId})) and
({table.startQty} = previous({table.startQty})
 
This should suppress the header when the partID and startQTY values are the same as the previous record that was displayed.

i have now created two detail section a and b, section a is for the header and b is for the data in the detail section . the headers are

LotID  LotType  Location  Tool  ReQdTime
 
so i am suppose to create formular based on  this right
e.g
({Command.LotID} = previous ( {Command.LotID} )) and
({Command.LotType}= previous){Command.LotType})and
. .......
 
 
i use this formular on the section a in detail section  because it is the header that i dont want to repeat with the data but after doing this the header still repeats what shall i do .....

Is this in the Suppress formula for the section or as a regular formula?  The formula isn't a "formula" but in the Suppress formula for the section.
 
- Right-click to the left of the section and select Section Expert.
- On the right side of the screen, there's an option labelled "Suppress" with a checkbox and a button.  Click on the button.
- The formula editor will appear.  Enter your formula.
 
When you create the suppress formula, make sure that it includes ONLY the the fields that are your group fields - NOT the detail fields!
