Multiple Grouping Collpase Issue

Hi,
Im running RS2000 and here is my problem:
I have a report that basically displays a multi-grouped report that
looks like this:
WEBSITE1
--ITEM CATEGORY1
--ITEM TYPE1
--ITEM INFORMATIOn1
--ITEM INFORMATIOn2
--ITEM INFORMATIOn3
--ITEM TYPE2
--ITEM INFORMATIOn1
--ITEM INFORMATIOn2
--ITEM INFORMATIOn3
--ITEM TYPE3
--ITEM INFORMATIOn1
--ITEM INFORMATIOn2
--ITEM INFORMATIOn3
--ITEM CATEGORY2
--ITEM TYPE1
--ITEM INFORMATIOn1
--ITEM INFORMATIOn2
--ITEM INFORMATIOn3
--ITEM TYPE2
--ITEM INFORMATIOn1
etc.
Now what I have as the initial state looks like :
[+]WEBSITE1
[+]WEBSITE2
whent 1 of those are expanded it should look like this:
[ -]WEBSITE1
--[+]ITEM CATEGORY1
--[+]ITEM CATEGORY1
[+]WEBSITE2
And it expands all the way down to item information.
The problem occurs on startup, It shows website 1 and website 2 on 2
different pages.
What's worse, it shows them a few pages apart since there is "invisble"
content in the pages in between.
Is there a way to make the report on one page ONLY?
1) I know there is 1-page HTML option
2) The try to make the report on 1 page property didnt work
Is there some other way to do this?Check to make sure you do not have each group start a new page...

issue of it going on to the 3rd or 4th page.
I would have thought that the initial state of collapsed would have placed
it on 1 page though. Guess it was being intelligent and expected the user
to expand all pages.
