Report/Subreport in Form? 1

[MrMeric]

Can one place a report/subreport in a form?
If not, what are some alternatives?

Thanks!

MrMeric,

Basically ahhhhh no!

Reports have "no" navigation control (although some things can be done using VBA). The reports/subreports in Access essentially "read" until EOF. Your only real choice is to create a form, then copy and paste as many controls as you can. This may require some effort, since not all control types are available to be used on a form (and visa versa). At least most of the "layout" (look and feel) would be retained. Depending on the complexity of the report there may be consideralbe VBA code behind it.

I do not know any tool that would provide this type of feature.


I wish you luck..

Great suggestion. I'll be using it! Thanks for your time!
