Hi Terry

>How about opening the table again, under a different alis. Loop through one of them. At each rec do a select-SQL for the "difference" on the other incarnation of it, accumulatively appending your result cursor to a report cursor?

The cursor idea is good. Actually it is more simpler, I know the recno() / uniqueid of the records to be compared. The thing is that I have a record that is behaving correctly in the reports and there is another which is not giveing the results so I want to find out the differences, which will, hopefully lead me to the problem field value.
