I will certainly try that when I get to work. Like yourself, Shared variables are not my area at all.
I'm normally very good with the logic side of things, but this one got me :(

I will report my findings later. If all fails, I will simply produce a longer report with the details section and suppress any customers that have not achieved the 50 threshold. Then the person the report is for will have to sum up the points manually.
Alot of my work / reports is purely to automate monotonous weekly / monthly tasks, but we can't please all the time eh ? Lol

Thanks for everyone's help so far.

PHEW! this was certainly a head test for me.
 
I have solved the problem. Thanks to DBlanks suggestion.
 
The main issue here, was I was trying to display everything in the group header.
 
ie;
 
GH1 - Customer - July units - UHP units - NON UHP units - Points accumulated.
 
 
This wasnt going to happen as i was using the shared variable formulas.
 
I trnasferred all this data into the group FOOTER, hid the details and GH1 sections, and the sums all add up nicely now. exactly what I wanted.
 
This report can now be put to bed!
 
thanks for all your help!
 
much appreciated.
Regards,
