How are Access Reports Organized?

At the beginning of an Access report, is the Report Header. You can look at this as a cover page. It can include items such as your organization's logo as well as a title and a date.

On every page of a report, the Page Header lists the report's title on top.

With every new group of records, a Group Header will display. This will list the group name, such as the region if your report is grouped by region. You can also include calculations for the group.

The Detail section lists detailed information about records in the group.

In the Group Footer, summary information about the group will display.

The Page Footer is like the Page Header. It prints page numbers or other information at the bottom of the page.

Finally, the Report Footer prints at the end of the report and lists totals and other types of summary data.
