I found my big Duh! While I did add the sub report table (view) in the Add/Remove table screen and I had all my column names in the subreport assigned to the correct table/view....
I did not assign the view name to the sub-report in the table name box! I do not not how many times I must have looked at the main report screen and when the sub report tab stated : "SubReport: table not assigned" my mind simply did not register it! I simply clicked the drop down box and selected the view and all is well! Oh well.... another cannot see the forest for the trees ...

The view should limit the sub-records by _date_. -- Larry
