    It is quite easy. You should add new datasource for Table component and then use it (datasource) in this component.

    The sample jrxml:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jasperReport ... whenNoDataType="AllSectionsNoDetail" ...>
    <style name="table">
        <box>
            <pen lineWidth="1.0" lineColor="#000000"/>
        </box>
    </style>
    <style name="table_TH" mode="Opaque" backcolor="#F0F8FF">
        <box>
            <pen lineWidth="0.5" lineColor="#000000"/>
        </box>
    </style>
    <style name="table_CH" mode="Opaque" backcolor="#BFE1FF">
        <box>
            <pen lineWidth="0.5" lineColor="#000000"/>
        </box>
    </style>
    <style name="table_TD" mode="Opaque" backcolor="#FFFFFF">
        <box>
            <pen lineWidth="0.5" lineColor="#000000"/>
        </box>
    </style>
    <subDataset name="tableDataset">
        <queryString language="SQL">
            <![CDATA[SELECT id, city, street FROM address ORDER BY city]]>
        </queryString>
        <field name="ID" class="java.lang.Integer"/>
        <field name="CITY" class="java.lang.String"/>
        <field name="STREET" class="java.lang.String"/>
        <group name="CITY">
            <groupExpression><![CDATA[$F{CITY}]]></groupExpression>
        </group>
    </subDataset>
    <title>
        <band height="58" splitType="Stretch">
            <componentElement>
                <reportElement key="table" style="table" x="0" y="0" width="299" height="46"/>

                    <jr:column width="90">

                    <jr:column width="90">

                            <staticText>

                        </jr:columnHeader>
                        <jr:detailCell style="table_TD" height="20" rowSpan="1">
                            <textField>
                                <reportElement x="0" y="0" width="90" height="20"/>
                                <textElement/>
                                <textFieldExpression><![CDATA[$F{STREET}]]></textFieldExpression>
                            </textField>
                        </jr:detailCell>
                    </jr:column>
                </jr:table>
            </componentElement>
        </band>
    </title>
</jasperReport>

    The design in iReport looks like this:

    • The main report view:

    enter image description here

    • The Table component view:

    enter image description here

    In this sample I’ve delete the main datasource and put the Table component to the Title band. I’ve set whenNoDataType=”AllSectionsNoDetail” property for displaying report.

    The data in report is grouped by city field.
