INTRODUCTION

You might want to include identifying labels on headers and footers because the page headers and footers print on every page. In addition to adding identifying labels, you can add other objects ”such as page numbers ”to the header or footer. Before you add items to your headers and footers, you may need to resize the header or footer section first. If you used AutoReport or the Report Wizard to create your report, headers and footers may already be added (you can delete them if you don't want them).

TIP

Adding Text

You can also add text to the header/footer, such as the company name , by adding a new label and placing it within the appropriate header or footer section. Refer to the task "Adding Labels to a Report" earlier in this part for more information.

TIP

Adding a Logo

As another option, you can add a picture to your report. If you want the logo to print on all pages, insert it in the Page Header or Page Footer section. To print the logo on only the first page, insert it in the Report Header section.
