Modifying report design
You can use the Report wizard to get a quick start on a report, but you will frequently want
to modify the report to obtain the result you need. As with forms, the report consists of
text box controls that are bound to the corresponding fields in the underlying table and
their associated labels. You can add labels, text boxes, images, and other controls, and you
can format them, either by using commands on the ribbon or by setting their properties in
the Property Sheet pane.
