Report - Overlapping rectangles

Following situation:
I've got a report where a graph on it. There are also 2 rectangles (1 red color and 1 blue color - Rectangle BoxNewWages3 (red one) & BoxOldWages3 (blue one)) that are adjusted to 2 variables. Sometimes, they fall together (thn I only show the BoxNewWages3 rectangle (which has a red color).
When the overlap each other (so we'll always see 1 complete and 1 a piece).
Now the problem is that I always want the red one above the blue, but I don't know how to achieve this.
Can someone help me ?

I must see the blue and red dot. It's not possible to make one of the two transparant, because I need to see them both if necessary.
The red must come on top of the blue !

It has something to do with the Z Order which normally you can change with the Format --> Bring to Front, Send To Back but if it did not work when you tried it ... I can't be sure. When you design a report the ZOrder is done by the order that you add the controls to the report so I guess you added the Blue rect and then the Red rect.
