I have followed the exact instructions on how to create a preview report that can be instantly filtered using a 5 filter options pulldown menu on a popup window. I do not get any error messages but one i try to set the filter nothing happens although the words "calculating.." appear on the scroll bar bottom left.
What might be the different reasons why a filter of this sort doesnt work.
Thanks much

Brain,

What does the filter that you produced look like?

The performance sounds like a case of improper joins, giving a Cartesian
product. Are there any joins?

Why don't you base the report on a Query?
