Alastair,
01. Make sure to Pre-Define ALL variable(s) required as Variable
Object(s) and/or Report Expression.
02. Make sure to verify Data Types accordingly.
03. To appropriately delete report section, click on "Green"
section to turn into "Red" section and then press delete key.
04. If you make a mistake and realized it right after that, simply
don't save the report. Exit and come back to do what you have
to do.
Hope that helps!
Very Best Regards,
Razzak.
