missing data

[funlife at centurytel.net]

David and Craig,

Thanks for responding.

After reading David's suggestions I got to thinking and, to make a  
long story short,
for some reason I found out I was only having this problem on one  
report but in looking at another report it showed a few dots after  
one of the food names. I opened up the field and found that  
"Watercress" had been typed in as a second food item in that line  
item. Because I had the expand option checked on one field it was  
showing up on that report but on the report that did not have the  
expand option checked it did not show up.

Deleting the extra data in the one field should do it.

Thanks for getting me to think about how to track down the problem.

John
