Tabular reports

Figure 37-1 is a typical tabular-type report (rptProductsSummary) displayed in print preview. Tabular reports (also known as groups/totals reports) are similar to a table that displays data in neat rows and columns. Tabular reports, unlike forms or datasheets, usually group data by one or more fields. Often, tabular
reports calculate and display subtotals or statistical information for numeric fields in each group.

Some reports include page totals and grand totals. You can even have multiple snaked columns so that you can create directories (such as telephone books). These types of reports often use page numbers, report dates, or lines and boxes to separate information. Reports may have color and shading and display pictures, business graphs, and memo fields. A special type of summary tabular report can have all the features of a detail tabular report but omit record details.
