Cummulative Cost (Task Timephased) does not calculate correctly

[ST]

Hi,

The Cummulative Cost task timephased field I'm using within the Task Usage
view on my project summary row in MS Pro 2003 is acting weird. I'm supposed
to end up with my 613K (which is my total Cost), but it ends up showing me
693K. If I just click on the cell that contains the wrong value, or if I
zoom in/ out, it will at times refresh the correct value but may not do so
all the way through.

I have another file that does the same thing. The file is published and I'm
using MS Pro 2003 with SP2. I tried saving the files as an mpp but it does
the exact same thing.

Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a reason or a fix?
This seems like a bug. Any suggestions?

it's actually a woftware client issue, not a server issue. Project is not
calculating Cumm. Cost correctly in MS Project.
