Hi,
I have a report that contains data on it. I want that
data to save them on a table. How can I do that?
I have access 2002.

Thanks a lot.
 
Koulla,

You are not very clear; is this an access report (in which case you already
have the data, so why store them again?), or an external report from some
other application, that you wish to import to Access? In the latter case,
you need to provide more information, like what app it comes from, the file
type etc.

The data on that report come from many calculations and
subreports. I want to take and stored them in a new table
so that to use that data later for another use. I just
want to know if there is any way to do that.
 
Data from a report cannot be stored unless it is in a query that underlies
the report. While you cannot store report data, you can duplicate it's
functionality in a form and save that. I suggest you don't do that.
Calculated data should not be saved in a relational database unless it is
required for history, or because the calculations take a very long time and
the data is recalled frequently.
