Good day,
 
I'm struggling with a report, it's returning wrong data if I change the parameters, example: If I select from '01/05/09' to '31/05/09' it will ask me to verify and it will give me correct data, and If I come again and select data out of the above criteria it will give me wrong data untill I verify for that specific range, vise versa!
 
Please help!

I am not sure what you mean by 'verify'.
 
What I would do is:
1) print the parameters on the report (this will allow to visually ensure that they are correct)
2) if you have a filter for the data, I would display the different parts(each line of a nested 'if statement') and display that in the details
3) keep building up the logic and what you display until you a) you find your error or b)you run out of things to test  (hopefully a comes first ;)  )
 
If the data is coming from a stored proc or view, verify that it is returning the correct data by using the displayed parameters.
 
HTH
