You can run into a problem with that, if there's a company name that comes earlier in the sort sequence than the "column header". I usually add a "Sequence" column, hard-coded to 0 for the header, and 1 for the query under the union, and then order by that first, to force the header to stay on top. (Had to do that in a few places in an Access front-end application.)
Just something to think about on it.
