Adding static columns to a matrix report?

So I'm making a matrix report. It's driving me nuts, frankly. Here's what I
want to do.
__________|Item Code|Description | Column Group -->
Row Group| | |
---
| | |
|
|
\/
I can get it all working, except for the "Description" column. What I have
now is
__________|Item Code| Column Group -->
Row Group| |
---
| |
|
|
\/
Which works fine. I cannot, for the life of me, add another "static" column
for the Description (that does not get repeated with the column group). I
hope this is clear enough for someone to offer me a suggestion, and I hope
posting doesnt mess up the linbreaks... Thanks in advance!
Peter L.Try this ..
Right click on filed below column group. choose add row.
It will add new column on left. Then delete the cell below the column field.
which will delete added row below but coloum on left will remain as it is.

Code column. It just won't let me add another column, no matter how many rows
I add...
