Multicolumn, multi databand

How can I create a report that has a report title band ONLY on the first page (about 3 inches tall), and then a column on the left that uses a DataBand pointing to one DataSource, and a column on the right with a DataBand pointing to a different DataSource. Subsequent pages should print the columns at the top of the page.

I tried creating 2 panels under the ReportTitleBand (one for left column, one for right), and it "almost" worked. The first page looked fine, but of course subsequent pages had a giant gap at the top.

Thanks!

Please, look at the Side-by-side Lists report in the Containers sectoin of our Demo. Maybe you should put your Report title Band on the Panel.
Or try to put your panels on the DataBand.

Thank you.
