    Best way to sort out report for an individual record with lots of fields

    Hi there,

    I'm trying to find the best way to organize a report that will have ALOT of fields for an individual record. Because it is for an individual record not a group of records (and I want it to be dynamic) I'm thinking of doing a filter & query to fill in report with necessary details. This report is going to contain ALOT of fields, even the wizard that I used based on the query said that there were too many fields, but I can't cut down.

    Any suggestions please?



    Thanks for any help. :-D

    I have the same issue for one report. Too many tables for one query and too many controls. Moving some of them to subreport got around the limits.

    @June7 Thanks will try creating sub-report. @ItsMe yub you're right - I'm using subforms in tab control for my main form data entry but sadly can't print it like that.

    Yah, I was not paying attention to the fact you are building a report.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
