Depending on the number of columns in the base table we have two choices
regarding the layout:
• If there are a few columns in the base table, we can use a tabular form if the
total width of all the columns is not too wide when placed side by side. We
don't want the user to scroll horizontally.
• If we have too many columns, we can use a form on the table with a report to
layout the columns neatly in the form. We could also use this approach when
we have a few columns. If we do not want the user to switch between too
many pages, we can generate both the form and report on one single page. We
can accomplish that by illing in the same page number for the form and report
in the wizard. After that we may want to place the report above the form.
