I have some sub reports that have material in their headers that needs to be
displayed even if the sub reports do not contain any data.

If you open a report in print preview and it does not contain any data you
still see the report header information -- assuming that you did not use the
OnNoData even to cancel the report.  However, if the same report is opened
in a sub report control it will not appear at all if there isn't any data.

Is there a way around this feature?

The simplest way to do this is to more your column head labels out of the 
subreport, and onto the main report.
