Can you create groups based on each header value? That way you can use the group header to separate sections. If groups don't work, you can use subreports, but this is less efficient and a little  more work to create.

could you elaborate on this 'Can you create groups based on each header value?'?.  you mean in group expert?. i did that for one of the fields but when i dragged the data field to group header it showed no data. It showed data while it was in the detail section.

You should read my online chapter about grouping records. It will explain how they work and give you some walkthroughs. See the Chapter 3 excerpts here:  http://www.crystalreportsbook.com/CrystalReportsXI.asp - Crystal Grouping
