When group in PROC REPORT spans 2 pages for ODS PDF...

[BigPete]

When one group or more spans more than a page in PDF output produced by PROC REPORT and ODS PDF, what commands would be necessary to make the the group value re-display on the next page.

For example, lets look at STEP 5 in the PDF on SAS website: http://www2.sas.com/proceedings/forum2008/079-2008.pdf.

Supposedly those first two lines are at the bottom of page 1 of the PDF:

County  Zip                            Monthly
Name    Code   Variety          Sales
-------------------------------------
...
Adams   52199  Merlot            233.03
                          Chardonnay   185.22
                          Zinfandel        95.84
              52200  Merlot           385.51
                          Chardonnay  246.00

By default, page 2 would look like this:

County  Zip                            Monthly
Name    Code   Variety          Sales
-------------------------------------
                                                 76.24
                          Zinfandel      151.10
Scott      52388  Merlot          122.89
                          Chardonnay   78.22
                          Zinfandel        15.40
              52423  Merlot           186.00
                                                 55.30
                          Chardonnay  156.61
                          Zinfandel         35.50

But what if I want every page to redisplay whatever group values from previous page if it spans more than one and even wedge an empty line between each county/zip/variety combo like this below?

Page 1:

County  Zip                            Monthly
Name    Code   Variety          Sales
-------------------------------------
...
Adams   52199  Merlot            233.03
                          Chardonnay   185.22
                          Zinfandel        95.84

              52200  Merlot           385.51
                          Chardonnay  246.00

Page 2:

County  Zip                            Monthly
Name    Code   Variety          Sales
-------------------------------------
Adams   52200 Chardonnay    76.24
                          Zinfandel      151.10

Scott      52388  Merlot          122.89
                          Chardonnay   78.22
                          Zinfandel        15.40

              52423  Merlot           186.00
                                                 55.30

                          Chardonnay  156.61
                          Zinfandel         35.50

You can use the SPANROWS option to repeat the group value across pages.  

options nodate;

ODS PDF FILE='/folders/myfolders/PROC REPORT/spanrows_example.pdf';
