Page headers and multipage sub reports

My report consists of 2 sub reports one below the second. The first
is a short (1/4 page) summary, the latter contains a more detailed
breakdown of the data and can span several pages. The problem I have
is that when it flows onto a second page it will not display headers.
For the first page I can work around the subreport not showing a
header by copying the labels into the report header section, but that
doesn't help for when it spans onto the second page. I can't use the
parent reports headers either, because they'd appear at the top of the
first page, above the summary subreport. Is there a way around this,
or will I have to split this into two separately printed reports?

Create a new primary/top level sorting and grouping level (in your subreport)
on a constant expression like:
=1
Display the group header for this level. Set the "Repeat Section" property
of the =1 Group Header to "Yes". Use this section in place of a page header
