  And yet make sure you call agregate function from memos on any summary band or from within its events.
  If this is OK try to find out as Gpi suggests by testing value of your data field like
  
  select MyData, IfNull(MyData, 'Y', 'N') as IsMyDataNull from AnyWhere

  No, I'm actually using the date field as filter in my query 'where' section.

  Ah, I see. I was trying to use it in my Title band. How can I put this summary as a title in my report? Do I have to resort to scripting?

  There are few options to do so.
  
  One of them is to make a report double pass, and within first pass calculate all as you need and put the values into variables. And within final pass use these variables to fill memos at TitleBand.
  
  Another is to make an extra query that will give you summary values at once without double pass report or waiting for any summary bands.
