Arthur,

I don't have any book recommendations for Access reporting.

However, I have used Access 2007 to create many many reports.

If your friend has questions, I would certainly be glad to help.

Subject: [AccessD] Access Book recommendations sought
 
A friend of mine is looking for a Access book that is especially strong on
Reports. He knows his database theory already (RI, joins, PK/FK, etc.) and
anyway, he won't be creating any tables, only joins to tables originating
from a variety of data sources, hit using ODBC. Personally, I like the
report writer in 2007+ vastly more than previous versions, so I'm
recommending he go with that.

I searched Amazon and saw two promising candidates, neither of which I've
read. They are *Brilliant Microsoft Access 2007 Forms, Reports and
Queries*(which is pricey), and
*Microsoft Office Access 2007 Forms, Reports and Queries*, by Paul
McFedries (much cheaper). Cost is not the deciding factor.

Has anyone read either of these? Any other suggestions?

Thanks.
