You can delete the Title, Summary, and Detail bands from your report or label. For information about deleting data groups, see How to: Delete Data Groups in Reports.
 Note: |
|---|
| You cannot reduce the number of Detail bands to zero. The page layout must always contain one Detail band. When you reduce the number of Detail bands, the highest-numbered band, which is the band added last and appears at the lowest level of the layout, is deleted. |
 Caution: |
|---|
| If a Detail band contains items, the designer prompts you to confirm deleting the band. However, the designer does not prompt you for confirmation when clearing the Title band or Summary band check box, which deletes the band and any controls it contains. |
