SYMPTOMS
When you save a report while some of the report's objects are selected,
the following unexpected behavior occurs:
- To clear the selection of the objects that were selected before the
report was saved, you need to click them directly. After clearing the
selection, you can't select these objects if click them directly, but
they are selected if you click any other object in the report.
- If you click Select All on the Edit menu, all the objects will be
selected except the objects that were selected before the report was
saved.
- If you click a blank area of the report to clear a selection of Report
objects that were selected by clicking Select All, then the objects that
were selected before the report was saved are erroneously selected.
WORKAROUND
You can use one of the following methods to correct this problem:
- Double-click the bar of any of the report bands.
-or-
- Increase or decrease the height of any of the report bands by clicking a
band's bar and then dragging it up or down.
-or-
- Close the report, and then reopen it.
