Marya,

This may be the old problem with the SUM::CurrentFiscalYear field.  See
the fix below and try it out.  If you want to confirm the problem first,
try finding a few records where the problem occurs, then run the Replace
Current Find Fields script from the Script menu for each of those
records and see if the find you're having problems with works properly
for them.  If you have problems with following this, feel free to call.

>From Jack Noll:

Peter Trosclair reported a problem recently.  He was getting one result 
when he ran "Replace All Find Fields", yet getting different results
when 
he ran "Replace Current Find Fields".  There was a bug in a field 
calculation that was the culprit.

You should determine if you have this problem.  Get into ebase using
your 
master password.  Once you're on the HOME screen, select 
File->Define->Fields.  Double-click on the field named "SUM::Current
Fiscal 
Year".  You will see a "Specify Calculation" dialog box appear.

The correct calculation for this field is as follows:

If( Month(gToday) >= setup::Fiscal Year Number and setup::Fiscal Year 
Number > 1, Year(gToday) + 1, Year(gToday))

If the calculation for your field reads differently, you should correct 
it.  After doing so, you should run the "Replace All Find Fields"
script, 
leaving the date blank so that it runs for your entire file.
