How do I achieve viewing only active accounts when viewing a financial statement in expanded mode. Our company uses many departments which are available for all accounts if necessary, but they are not all active. In the ledger, the account/dept items that are not used are marked as inactive. If they are required, they are changed from inactive to active.

I have tried using the "active accounts" only button on the toolbar, but it is crossed out and does not make any changes. I still get all 12 departments for every account when the report is expanded, which makes it HUGE!

To build the statement, I used the RANGEDEPT command because I would like to be able to view these particular statements by select department as well. ??? If I use only RANGE, will I get only the active accounts in the expanded mode, but lose the ability to see the reports by Dept?

Thanks
