[AccessD] Access Report - One field for one Customer is Missing

Rocky, David, Gary, Doug,

Thanks for all of your ideas/insights.

I used every idea as I tried to debug this problem.

One thing that I failed to mention earlier is that the underlying query
is pulling data from several other queries.  In other words it is
complex.  It appears that when the complexity of the queries is combined
with the report (which has sorts and filters), the Access gods are
angered.

I changed the report's query to be a "Make Table" query and then I
changed the report's data source to this new temporary table.  This
fixed the problem.

I don't fully understand what Access does behind the scenes, but
apparently the underlying queries are somehow combined with the report
filters and in some cases that does not work properly.

I really appreciate all of the help.  I am the "Lone Ranger IT person"
with no one else onsite to consult with.  Your assistance on this issue
and on many prior problems has been outstanding.

Thanks again,
Brad

Subject: [AccessD] Access Report - One field for one Customer is Missing

All,

This is one of the strangest things that I have seen for a long time.

We have a Sales Order report that has been used for several months.
Recently one of our users pointed out that the Customer Name was not
being shown for a specific customer.  

There are 7 fields shown for each customer on the report.  All of the
fields are shown for all customers, except one.  For this one customer,
only 6 of the 7 fields are shown.

Here is where things get really interesting...

When I look at the data from the underlying query, I can see all 7
fields for this customer.

In other words, all of the data is visible in the Report's data source
(underlying query), but not all of the data is being shown on the
report.

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Brad
