3 Access Lesson 5 Microsoft Office 2010 Introductory 333 Creating a Report Using the Report Tool A report is a database object that displays data from one or more tables or queries in a format that has an appearance similar to a printed report. You can use reports to: – Create a formatted list of information – Summarize information – Print form letters and mailing labels The tables or queries that contain the data used in a report are called the record source.

4 Access Lesson 5 Microsoft Office 2010 Introductory 444 Creating a Report Using the Report Tool (continued) The Report tool quickly creates a simple report that includes all the fields in the selected table or query, uses a columnar format, formats the report using a theme, and includes a title with the same name as the record source. When fields appear in a report, they appear in controls.

Report data is read-only, which means that you can view it but you cannot change it.

7 Access Lesson 5 Microsoft Office 2010 Introductory Lets Create A Report Open the Company Database (either from Mr. Smith’s site or you may have it saved) We want to create a report of everyone that has a birthday in October. The view you initially go to is layout. We can make changes to the order, what fields are used, sort data, etc here. A report can act like a filter but it shows us more of the printed out look plus you cannot edit records from within a report. 7
