Report Magic currently uses the date it was run on for date insertions. This
means if you run it on May 1st, as you discovered, you will get that date, even
if the report time frame ended in April. This will be changing in the next
release.
In the meantime, you can use Analog's date insertion to create the 'dat' file
with the proper April date:
OUTFILE report-%m-%Y.dat
Then use the key phrase 'infile' to name the Report Magic report like the input
file name:
[statistics]
File_In = report-04-2000.dat
[reports]
File_Out = %infile%.htm
