Default Viewer vs My Viewer

Nico or Nard

Here is the delimna

I have 5 tables linked together in succession
dealer linked to headers linked to rooms linked
to parts linked to mods and a 6 table that cannot
be linked to any of the others. Headers table contain
Quotes.

Calculations have to be performed has it progresses
thru the tables i show calculation total for each room record
along with the final total for all rooms combined.

the all rooms totals come from the indidivual room totals

If I use the the Default Viewer, the totals for all rooms are
correct.

If I use myviewer on a form and show that form instead i get
higher total room calcualations when i click the button for the next page
ie: myviewer.nextpage;

It is always on the first viewing
i can close the form and view the same Quote again and everything is all
right.

If i go to a new quote, and view it, it is all jacked up. close and view it
again
it is all right.

what is happening on the first viewing that is not happening on the second
veiwing?

THANKS IN ADVANCE GUYS

    Hi Joey,

    There should be no difference between using the default Previewer and your
    own because they both use the same screen device to output your report. Is
    there any event code you are including that could be causing this effect?
    One thing you might try is setting your library path to point toward
    \RBuilder\Source and trace into the RB code as your calculations are made
    the first time you run your report. This may give you a hint to where the
    problem is occuring.
