I get a lot of GPV when working with reports and calculated fields.  I 
never edit them in the "define field" dialog (as it often crashes for 
me) but use Proview's edit method function.  I also almost always call 
methods if I am doing anything more than an iif.  Not sure why, just 
habit but there may have been a reason  at one time.
