If you used an email address when reporting the crashs (did you?), I might be able to look up your reports, and see if they tell anything about possible reasons. In general - well, I did enought reports myself, without crashing, so I suppose something is special on how you did it, or in your environment, or something like this. > I was able to create a grouped report one time, but each time the > grouped field changed the report started a new page. Strange. Do you have sample data, and sample settings for the wizard, for this? > In addition it is extremely difficult to edit a report. I could change > the column width but that's about it.

Actually, editing a report is - very unfortunately - not really supported currently :( > I was able to create a query but the query results did not carry over > the formatting from my table.

I agree that it's expectation conformant that the column in the report has the same formatting as in the underlying query/table, so this now is issue 55179. > Base appears to be somewhat more stable than earlier releases but it > looks like there's quite a bit of work still ahead. Ehm - yes.
