Multiple 'Detail' sections

[Leo]

Hi

I would like to know how to enter multiple 'detail'
sections within an Access report.
For example, the top half of the report will list data
pertaining to tbl_A, and the bottom half of the report
will list data pertaining to tbl_B.

Is this possible?
Please let me know.
Thanks!!!

Sounds like two sub reports.

And how would i do that?

You'd create two reports with the data you want and save them.

Then, create a third blank report based on nothing. Use the 'sub report'
tool on your tool box to insert a subreport. It should give you a list of
all your available reports. Pick the one you want. Then repeat the process
for the second subreport.

After you got Rick's suggestion, any chance you looked up sub report or
subreport in help? (Which, BTW, would have been *much* faster than posting
another question to the newsgroup.)

The first two topics listed are "About subreports" and "Create a subreport."

There's more than enough information there to get you started.

After you've mastered that information, you might find some useful
techniques in the sample report database available at
http://office.microsoft.com/assistance/preview.aspx?AssetID=HA011201381033&CTT=98.

And for solving specific problems you might run into, search the knowledge
base at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;EN-US;KBHOWTO for
subreport.

Good luck.
