Dan: I have started trying to avoid putting any calculation logic at all in reports. Instead, I generate the data into a temporary table and make a "simple" report off of that. I do it because:
- I have more power available for the calculations (the full R:Base language, not just report expressions).
- Once I generate the table I can "present" the information in many different ways (different report formats, charts, browse, export, etc).
- I hate having to hunt for program logic in too many places.
So my suggestion is that replace all your report logic with code to get the data you want in a temp table and then just use the report writer to format it.
