Dynamic Crystal Reports w/ .NET

I am trying to replicate the following screen in a Crystal Reports for .NET.

I am having problems. You cannot create a formula for the position/width of a box or textbox. Also, there doesn't appear to be a way to write code to format the template as each row is processed. Change the width/left of the boxes only changes the template before the data is processed and the report is created.

I talked to Crystal Reports technical support and there only decent suggestion was to use a bar chart. This almost works but due to the flexibility of the charting components I don't think I will be able to get anything reasonably close to this format.

Any ideas?Maybe a chart would work?
