I will try to creat a new file and duplicate the problem, but I bet
you anything it will work in a new file because I really think I've
got corruption. Shame I can't export report definitions. That's how
you helped me solve a severe problem in my address book months ago.
It also was not picked up by Validate.
I think this started with introducing folders and would dearly love
to get back to the point whenI installed them, but I don't think there
is a way to do that without losing all my reports or a lot of data
entry. I'm also going to experiment with the setting of "create a
new report on customizing" and see if I can get a functionally
identical report which is not in a folder under a new name.
Heretofore, I've always been able to customize an existing report and
replace it under the same name. Can't do that now. Get two samed
name reports (in or outside a folder) and deleting one deletes both.
