Default group on first line instead of offset

I have a feature question that I don't know if it exists. In an access 2007
report, I have a group setup to contain a client group and then below it is
the individual clients and other information. From a formatting perspective
I would like to have that group name be on the same row (or on the same level
however it is stated) of the first client in that group.

i.e.
Group1 Client1
Client2
Group2 Client3

Is that possible?

Add the group control to the same line.

Set the control's Hide Duplicates property to yes (property is on the format tab.

Now the control will not print when it has the same as the previous record.
It MIGHT repeat on the next page. I can't recall.

Thanks John,

While Marshall's suggestion was a good one as well, this one will work
better for my purposes. Thanks to you both, i didn't know about those
features.
