How to Ensure that a Textbox Will Stay Alinged with a Matrix in SSRS 2008?

$

Hello All,

I am very frustrated with this situation that I have at the moment regarding a matrix.  My matrix is laid out and styled the way that I like and it works, however I need to add a title above it and i've chosen to do this with a separate textbox.  The problem I now have is that when I run the report, the textbox may or may not be the same length as the matrix. 

What method can I use to ensure that my matrix will always line-up correctly with my textbox?

In a very general way (screenshots are stupidly not allowed in this forum), here is what I am looking for:

 

                           WEEKLY SELL-OUT

Row Group  Column title 1    Column title 2   Column title 3

 

WEEKLY SELL-OUT is the title which I need.  I've put a rectangle around the matrix and tried aligning them, but each time the data is refreshed the matrix may or may not be aligned with the WEEKLY SELL-OUT textbox.

I've also tried putting a title within the left corner texbox within the matrix itself, however this is ugly and not what I want.  I need it to be centered with the entire matrix and not just withing the textbox. Doing it this way does this to my matrix:

WEEKLY SELL-OUT

Row Group  Column title 1    Column title 2   Column title 3

 

Again this is not what I want.  I want it to be centered and using the textboxes inside the matrix does not allow me to do that.  Also, i'm not able to merge cells within a row in a matrix, only within a column.

Surely there MUST be a way to do this properly - can someone help?
