I think the confusion here is that the _Type_ of report is "List of People".
The default _Configuration_ is "List of All People". That would only apply
until a Focus different from All People is selected. The report will still
be named "All People" (incorrectly) if the Configuration name is not changed
when the report is redefined.
Rather than change the default reports, I either make a copy and redefine it,
or create a new report using the Report Wizard or selecting New (from just
above the Wizard). Then I give it an appropriate Configuration name.
One added note: I almost never use the Report Menu, instead I access the CRW
by clicking on the CRW button which looks like a printer. It is the third
button from the left side, just under the View Menu, on my screen. Since I
have added some buttons and made other changes, it may be different for
others.
Hope my explanation doesn't just add to the "nit-picking" confusion!
