How to print a description for a number?

N

I am creating a report and the report has a lot of
information divided into units. Each unit is described by
a number from 0 to 100 increase by ten units each. What I
would like to accomplish is to instead of printing in the
report the number 10, 20, 30, etc I would like to print
the Unit name. example; Machine Wide, Operator Load, Dial,
etc.

How do i do this? Please advise.

Thank you in advance for your help with this matter!

I assume you have a table with the the numbers (10,20,30
etc.) and their related real description. If not, you'll
have to make one.
In the report data source you would create a query and use
the data table and the related number table (related by
the number). Now you can use the resultant query for your
report and print the description instead of the number.
Hope this helps.
