SSRS - white space issue in column group

I have a row group in my report that I'm using in the page header using the approach in this article: Reporting Services - Group Name in Page Header However, I can't find a way to NOT SHOW the column in the Tablix AND not have white space in the report where the hidden column is. Anyone? I've been searching for hours now :)

Design Mode

Have you tried setting the width of the column to something minuscule (0.00001 for example)? - SQLHound
Not the most glamorous solution, but it will do. This just seems like such a normal thing to do - hard to believe it can't be done the "right" way. thanks. - Laurel
One of the cons to SSRS design, but I've yet to run across a system that doesn't have a similar situation in one way or another. - SQLHound
it would be good if you could show a screenshot of the hidden column in design view and in preview. - Trubs
Images attached for what they are worth. Basically, there is white space reserved to the left of the first non-hidden field (Board). - Laurel

Already did that - it leaves whitespace. I finally just gave up and slid the column width to the minimum so that it doesn't show.
