Summary


In this chapter, you learned how to build useful and attractive reports using the wizards that come with Access. You also saw an example of building a report programmatically, but in most situations, you are more likely to use the former, rather than the latter, technique.

As you saw in forms, and it works the same way here, you can use programming to assign a record source to the report. By doing that, you can build a limited number of generic reports and just assign the data source as needed.

With this chapter on reports, you’ve now concluded your overview of Access objects (tables, queries, forms, and reports). In the next chapter, you’ll learn how to construct menus and menu items that can be used to programmatically run the code that uses Access objects.
