When executing report painter things you are always executing a REPORT GROUP (containing one or more reports), thats why in SE93 you see the report group not the report. And furthermore if you only transport the report group (not the changed report itself) the report group always refers to the old report in the target system. 3: If you save an extract, this is "frozen". So changing the report definition and viewing an extract will always show the old version/data. If you want to see your cahnges, run the report without using "extracted data".
