I do not believe you have to "redefine" global variables in 7.5. Define
rCEUTAKEN as a global variable. (Either before entering Reports
or in the variable generator as a Global variable) Then locate a
variable field on your report and select the variable from the list.
Do not redefine it the variable list. I do not believe that is needed.
Other than that, I am sure you have checked all Visible properties
of the band and variable field, etc.
