But, then I did a lot about reports and found interesting thing about it. And that is, that it's can't work with dataenvironment and datasessions with 100 percent accuracy. I found an bug article about this at MS knowledge base, but don't have a link, so chceck it out. And I experience this trouble only with forms with it's own DE, when it can't set some indexes correctly and SOMETIMES it doesn't release itself and it hangs on. I think (not sure) it mostly happens with formsets. But no work-arround found yet.... hth Dezider
