Quick Question on reports

[ljankovsky]

Hello out there, I'm new at Access and am practicing spacing between columns
on a Access report. The "Dummy" book tells me to "Click the Select All box"
in the layout view but I'm not sure what they are talking about. If I click
on any item within the layout view that item is bolded not all the items,
where is the select all box on the layout view of the report?

I don't know about the Select All box, but if you press Ctrl + A while in
design view it should select everything. Alternatively, you can use the
mouse to "draw" a box on the report. Anything that falls wholly or
partially within the box will be selected. Another option: press and hold
the Shift key while clicking to select or unselect specific controls.

It may be somewhat different in Access 2007. What I have written applies to
Access 2003 and earlier.
