All Profits - Wow, I'm rich!

Well, Datek set me a 1099-B. Since I do mostly shorts, nearly every line shows the proceeds from the short sale, but never notes that I had to buy them back. This makes my net profit huge. Since the 1099-B does not show my purchases (only sales), is it safe to assume it is incorrect or do I need to come up with each and every buy myself and append them?

Thanks
