1) Very strange, since kV_Random is supposed to work as previous version.
The flag kV_Forward do allow only access from the first to the last record.
Thus if your are at position 5, you cannot go to 4 with kV_Forward.

If you use group footer in your report, this kind of cursor cannot work...
or I have misunderstood how this can work :

You print the record x of group a. Next you go to the record x+1.
If record x+1 is of group a, you print it. Ok.
Else, if you have footer group to print, you must go backward to print the
values of the record x. But you cannot go backward when you have set
kV_Forward.

2) I don't use the variables features of dbReport, since I compute myself
and store the values I need in another table.

3) I use the dbReport 3.1. Perhaps the latest use the cursor differently
than mine with witch I don't have problem.

4) Is it the newly created database that is wrong or is its display ?

I agree with you :=)
