Hey all,
I hope you can help. I've been working with this for days and am making no headway. I have an existing report which works fine, but I need to add a couple of columns to the detail line. Currently I have a three row detail followed by a full page summary and I have a set of parameters which returns about six thousand results.
I'm trying to add the two columns by making it a four row detail line. I have been able to expand the frame and the report still works, but as soon as I add a column, or even move an existing one, the report run with my set parameters returns zero results and my totals drops to zero.
My summary totals are not dependent on the detail lines but even if they were, why on earth would moving a field in the detail line change my results?
If you need any more information to help me, just let me know and I shall provide it with the utmost will.
Many thanks in advance for your help here and in previous conundrums.
Robin

I've attached the rdf. When I went to run an example, I found that the "generate to file" option doesn't work with either version of the report (both show zero results). The report I included is the existing working version. My goal was to expand the detail repeating frame to show four lines of detail instead of three. I am able to expand the frame, but even moving a column within the frame causes the results to drop to zero.
Unfortunately, this is a rather complex report. Generally, for speed's sake, we use a pl/sql package which does most calculations and stores line displays for complex matrix reports. This data is stored in a temporary table and the layout runs from that temp table.
Let me know if you need any further information and I shall provide it asap.
Thanks much!
Robin
