The majority of reports you create will probably be based on data from more than one table. The reason is that a properly normalized database usually requires that you bring table data back together to give your users valuable information. For example, a report that combines data from a Customers table, an Orders table, an Order Details table, and a Product table can supply the following information:
You can base a multitable report directly on the tables whose data it displays or on a query that has already joined the tables, providing a flat table structure.
Another popular method of building a one-to-many report is to use a one-to-many query. A one-to-many report built in this way is constructed as though it were based on the data within a single table. First, you build the query that will underlie the report.
After you have finished the query, you can select it rather than select each individual table (as done in the preceding section). After you select the query, you use the same process to create the report as you used for the previous report.
You can also create a one-to-many report by building the parent report and then adding a SubForm/SubReport control. This is often the method used to create reports such as invoices that show the report's data in a one-to-many relationship rather than in a denormalized format. If you want to use the SubForm/SubReport Wizard, you must make sure that you select the Control Wizards tool before you add the SubForm/SubReport control to the main report. Here is the process:
rsub
. Click Finish to complete the process.The one-to-many relationship between two tables is clearly highlighted by this type of report. In the example, each customer is listed with the related detail records that reflect the projects associated with that customer.
