Working with Access Forms and Reports
Forms and reports are incredibly powerful components of the Access toolset. Access forms enable you to build user interfaces on top of database tables, providing a robust rapid application development platform for many types of organizations. Access reports allow you to easily integrate your database analysis with polished PDF‐style reporting functionality, complete with grouping, sorting, and conditional formatting.
Chapters 17–19 show you everything you need to know in order to turn your simple database into a viable application with attractive interfaces that can be used for viewing, adding, editing, and deleting data.
Chapters 20 and 21 walk you through the steps for building Access reports, offering your users a flexible way of viewing summarized information in the desired level of detail, while enabling them to print their information in many different formats.
