Summary data is missing or incorrect

To make sure that subsummary data displays correctly, consider these points:

Before printing or previewing, sort by all of the break fields on which your subsummaries are based.

View subsummary information in Preview mode. Summary data does not display in Browse mode.

Records with no value in the break fields will sort to the top and can thus give the appearance of no data. You can omit records with blank values in the break field before running a subsummary report.

Make sure you're working with the intended found set. (Look in the status area.)

Make sure data has been entered consistently in the break field. For example, be sure that FileMaker, Inc. is not sometimes entered as FM. Use a value list to ensure consistency during data entry.

In Layout mode, make sure fields aren't touching or crossing the part boundaries.
