Different Size Columns in Different Table Rows?

I'm trying to recreate something that I could do in Crystal Reports and have
hit a wall with Report Designer.
I want to create two (or more) header rows and two (or more) detail rows
with each column width different from the column width from the row above
(or below). I found how to add more header and detail rows but the column
widths remain the same for each row and cannot be adjusted separately. What
I'd like to to is to "merge" table columns for one report row into just one
column with the other row remaining as two columns.
For example, I want a report where the first row of detail contains multiple
columns that contains information about a database column, but then the next
detail row should only contain ONE column.

Is there a way to do this with RS, or is there some workaround?
Thanks for any help.Never mind (again) ;) I found the Merge Cells right-click command.
