Thank you Jack,
there is a way to do it automatically, without to type manually, or not?
Ciao Gius

Gius,
The distance information that appears in the Summary Window is calculated 
and presented, but it is not stored in any database. Therefore, it is not 
available for use on any reports. If you wanted to type it into your log 
manually such as putting it into the Special 1 or Special 2 fields, you 
could then use those fields on your reports to have the information included
on the reports.
Regards,
Jack
