probably nothing, but I'm having a little trouble deciphering your
attachements. I looks like you're using some test accounts at the
moment, could you email a copy of the file off-list? 

The advanced portfolio is currently very broken in a number of ways
(check bugzilla.gnome.org, if you're curious, search on advanced
portfolio). I'm actually in the process of fixing some things in it
(hence my request for "yet another test file" above.). On the surface,
it looks like you're facing one of the many problems with the report
as it stands. sorry.
