I'm trying to generate a summary report in Sesame 2.0.4.  This report excludes all of the line item details and simply prints the subtotals.  The roadblock I'm having is that I can't find a way to reliably print the Group By column in the Group Footer.  For example, I'm trying to summarize sales by date.  I don't want to print all of the individual sales transactions.  I just want, by date, a line item in the report that shows my sales figures.  The problem is, how do I print the date being used in the grouping?  Here's what I've done:

1) Added the date and the sales figure fields to the Group Body.
2) Set the group to group by the date field, with a break of 1(*).
3) Add sum fields to the group footer.
4) Add a field bound to the date in the group footer.

The problem is with step four.  The date that's printed is the last date in the report.  It's not the date that was used by the group.  I'm not surprised actually, considering how the date grouping logic allows you to group on X number of days.  This means that the group value can be indeterminate if X > 1.  Is there any workaround that would allow me to output the date in the group footer?  I've tried using a static variable, setting the value of this variable in the On Print event of the date field in the Group Body, with no success.

(*) Note that when grouping on a date, a Break Value of 0 does not break on each individual date, as the documentation implies.  You need to use a Break Value of 1 to break whenever the date changes.

PS - I'm also having a problem with the Page Header.  It's not being output when I do an HTML Preview of the report.  It is being output when I do a Print Only Preview.

Can you use summary fields in derived fields if the derived fields are in the same group footer as the summary fields?  I've had no luck accessing the summary data so far, but maybe it's an unsupported feature.

Thank you both.
