Hi All

Writing a report in to the usage of Access Reports and how it can be improved. Just wondering what any of you guys would like to see improved in the Reports function. Strange question (again lol) however it would be interesting to see what your thoughts are. Any answers appreciated.


cheers.

For starters, have the report Detail section OnFormat event fire once per report, rather than once per (report) page.

The detail onFormat event needs to fire for each detail record. It can't fire just once per page let alone once per report. You would never be able to show and hide fields for example.

1. Add ability to aggregate at the page level as well as at group levels.
2. Enhance the export to Word and to html so that they don't loose all the graphic elements. Both formats support graphical elements so that is not the limiting factor.
