IMNSHO, you should forget about the one-to-many-report-wizard.

Just use one or more SELECT commands to prepare the data into a single cursor (for a start, you can use the query builder to assist you in the SQL command, and then base the report on that cursor.

>I am trying to build a report that contains data from 3 files in chained relationships. IE. file1 is related to file2 and file 2 is related to file3. The data from file3 appears in the detail band of the report. Data from file1 is in the Group1 band and data from file2 is in the Group2 band.

>I have tried building this report from scratch and I've also tried using the one to many wizard. Since the wizard will only accomodate 1 of the relationships, I have then manually added the third file and the required relationship. I have tried this starting with file2 and file3 and also with file1 and file2. In both cases the report does not step through the records in the latter file that I added by manually.
