When matrix is created in version 2 or above you do not get the componant sub fields in the sub descriptions, they only get put into the decscription literal of the componant item(s). THis causes lookups and reports issues when selecting by sub description1-3. if sub description 1-3 are labeled specific. ie size color and design for example in sub1-3 will never show the matrix attributes as the descrtipion gets them only when you create the componant items.
