Repeated data gathering with subreport/export

[LGB]

I have a report to which I added a subreport which gives me total outstandings by state. It works fine. I link to state in the main report and I get the subtotals correctly. I run the report , look at it, etc. When I go to export the rpt, the dang thing runs again.
It doesn't matter if I have 'save data with report' checked or not. It's annoying because it takes so long for it to gather data and format it.

any ideas on what is going on? what am I missing?
Anything would be helpful.

Dear LG8,

I don't know if this has impact but Right Click on Subreport, Click Subreport tab and see if you have reimport upon opening selected.

Rosemary,
I looked at the subreport tabs (and the online help).
When I look at Main Rpt FORMAT;format subreport;subreport tab, the CHECK BOX for reimport is checked but it's grayed out. I can't change it. I looked also at the SUBREPORT file options menu;new report; that check box is blank for
reimport. I don't know how it got checked in the first place.
How do I change it now? Please don't tell me I have to start over with the subreport..It took me forever to figure it out the first time!
Thanks for your reply.
