Hi!
I have a group named: "Group #1 Name" and as you know when viewing the report at the first page in Group 1 section we see the title of group but this is not appears in next page till we navigate to next group.
Now i want to display the current Group Title navigating by user in the header of page to help user know currently is in witch group( for ex: if group name is name of countries, Products in Country "A" is continued in next page and other next pages and we vant see these products country).

I copied my "Group #1 Name" and put it on the page header this working but there is a problem:
when navigating the report from viewer and when we see the next group(Ex: Country B) at the header the value is still Country A and if you continue navigatin to the next page it will be correct.
this is my Q:
How Can I Suppress The header field According to the Group Name?
cleary I want to Suppress Field that shows Country A in the header when The Group Counrty B is Displaying In the Current Page.
was my Q Clear?

+1  A: 

I suggest right-clicking on the relevant Group in the Designer, selecting Group Options, and then checking Show Group Header On Each Page. No need to mess about with putting Group #1 Name in the page header. If you want it to appear as if it's in the page header, you can investigate the Underlay Following Section option.

What do you mean by detail pages? The detail section? Just use a separate Formula Field.

Thank you. Now I have another Question Under above Question and it is relevant. How Can I Find Page Number of a Specific Member in a group Name? Can I reach that? EX: You know we have Group name 1 and this group has 5 Items(A,B,C,D,E) can I get page Number for Item B?Can You Help me?

That partly depends on where you want to use the page number information. If it's on the last page of the report, then you can use a formula array and runtime formulas. If it's on the first...then it's often impossible.You'll get answers easier if you start a new post on StackOVerflow, as only people who commented here will get notified of your queries here.

+1  A: 

You want to go to the group expert, select the group, and check the option to repeat group header on each page. It will repeat the group header as long as it has a details section in the page. It will not repeat the header if it is only the footer being displayed.
