Slow Formatting with Subreport

[kresolb]

I have a subreport that causes slow formatting only when I include a specific field named "description"in the subreport. When I remove this field from the subreport, both the subreport and main report generate very quickly. This field is only used as reference, and isn't a primary key or indexed, and it still exists in the data source query. I have tried changing many of the formatting settings, such as removing groupings, order by, and keep together setting, but have yet to solve my issue. I feel there is something pretty simple I am missing, since removing only that once field makes the report run just fine. Any help is appreciated.
