Is there a better way to design a report (typically a drilldown) that is more tabular than columnar? The recommendation from support was to put one detail field and hide it, then put the data in the report heading and use grid to align fields.

Name Doe Engineering
Address 123 Easy Street
City, ST Zip Louisville, KY 40223

instead of

Name Address City ST Zip
Doe Engineering 123 Easy Street Louisville KY 40223

Background...
My company and I are brand new to WF. Have only taken the self paced basic Report Painter training. As I experiment in Dev Studio and run into challenges I haven't had much luck finding answers in the documentatation. I've browsed this forum and I'm sure my questions are very basic. Please point me to other learning tools that have helped you.
