    Posted: 02 Oct 2007 at 7:52am

I have noticed that my distinctcounts always equal distinctcount plus 1. When the count should be 40, it's 41. I have no idea why...I have over 50 distinctcounts on my report and this is happening for each.

Has anyone ever had this happen, and if so, is there a way around it?
 
I have created a formula that does a distinctcount(field)-1 and this makes the count correct, but when I have to put the count directly on my report, I can't get around it adding 1 every time.
 
Thanks for your help to this strange problem.

I am not sure if this is related. But if you have groupings on your report and depending how  your counts are configured CR can add one more pass to the group.  It might be adding that to your counter. If you have groupings think through how CR makes passes to generate the report data, look at your groups, and see where to to place the counter.
 
I have encountered this at times when creating manual running totals on data fields. Its a different problem than you report, but might have the same cause and solution.
