Dwayne, It was the ODBC configuration I was talking about. By the way calling "?Pm-" a formula field was a devils error. I meant the parameter field.. sorry about that..
If you already have the 'Use underscores' checked, just for the purpose of eliminating possible problems, could you hit the option to 'Verify Database' and save the report? On doing so import that report into the Remedy reporting forms and then try re-running the report.

It is the sub-report link that the main report feeds to the sub-report for record selection. The "/" could be a problem. You say to make sure I have "Use underscores" checked. It is checked on the server ODBC. Is there anyplace else it should be checked? I can't find anything in Mid-Tier configuration.
