I use Peachtree Accounting 2004 on Windows XP Pro. I recently tried to create a custom Financial Statements report. I saved the new report with a new name (omitting ) and it seemed OK. When I tried to modify the report, it acted like it saved it OK (it asked if I really wanted to overwrite the existing report by the same name & I clicked OK), but the changes weren't there. No error pop-ups appeared either time.
I was able to save the changes using another name, but when I tried to remove the previous version, again it acted like it worked but the report wasn't removed from the list and could still be accessed. Again, no error pop-ups appeared.
This only happens in the Financial Statements reports; I have no trouble editing and deleting custom reports in any other report type.
I asked a colleague to try the same thing on his WinXP/PA2006 and he had the same problem. Another colleague that runs Win2k/PA2004 did NOT have the problem. Has anyone else seen this behavior? On what OS/PA version? Is there a solution to this problem?
Chkdsk and data verification report no problems. Reindexing the report and report data files doesn't help, nor does reinstalling Peachtree. I have full control permissions for my company folder and all its contents. I even tried removing all the .LCK files. Nothing helps. I've searched the web and the Peachtree online support website and found nothing related to this problem.
Please CC me by email in any responses. Thanks for any help.
