Microsoft® Office Access™ 2007 Plain & Simple

Creating a Summary Report

Although both database object types let you display your table and query records, one thing you can do in a report that you can’t with a form is to summarize your data within a report. For example, if you created a summary report of all orders and grouped the report’s contents by product, you could add a summary function to find the total sales for each product. You could also find the minimum, maximum, or average value of orders for each listed product.
