Summary calculations in the database report of Works for Windows can be incorrect if they are closely preceded by either a manual or an automatic page break. This applies to both horizontal and vertical page breaks. This problem is corrected in Works for Windows 3.0.

WORKAROUND

 * 1) From the Edit menu, choose Copy Report Output.
