>A basic rule that I have followed for years - "Never use a data environment on a Report"! Well, that is just me I guess. I use a cursor so I can easily control the data environment, and that is just one reason.

Me too. I find the DE a frequent source of trouble, and one of the first things that should be checked if the report behaves queerly.

Although, more recently I have been sending most of my new reports to Excel, instead.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
