>1) detail band 1 with a box around the textfields group fields cdag1 ~ cdag7
>2) detail band2 without a box just a fields with data from field cdag8

>I am about to abandon the construction and will now create 2 reports one for detailband1 with boxes etc and one for the detailband2. Than join those two reports to one. I believe that will be the best solution for this (painstacking) problem, unliess somebody gives me a better hint.
