3.2.5 Building a group left formula report

In this example, you will use the Report Wizard to set up your report and write the one query that selects all the necessary database columns. You will then manually create the two formula columns to calculate tax and order totals for each customer, then add the formula columns to your report.

3.3.4 Building a report with graphics, text, and color

In this example, you will build a report and enhance it by adding an image to the margin, a title, and a border.

In this example, you will build a report that numbers pages using the format Page X of Y Pages. The first number X corresponds to the current page for each parent record that is, each sales representative. This page number is reset to 1 for each sales representative, thus tracking the statistics of each representative separately. Figure 3–16 Final output of the renumbering pages by repeating frame example For more information on building this example, refer to Chapter 19, Building a Report that Renumbers Pages by Repeating Frame .
