I have created a monthly report in Access and it populates on it's own when
records are modified. However, I cannot seem to save each monthly report,
it is always modified. I have been exporting to excel but the report header
is all screwy looking. I then import back into Access and save. How can I
save a report form yet save each one as an individual?
 
Reports don't contain any data. Only tables contain data. Reports are one
way of manipulating and displaying data. Each time you run a report, it will
show the current state of the data in the underlying tables.

I don't know your data, so I can't say what it would take to reproduce a
previous month's data. In some cases, it can be done by filtering the
report's data for a specific time period. That would assume the data for
pervious time periods does not change.

But, if all you are looking for is a way to save a report, you can either
create and save a pdf or snapshot view (.snp) in a folder. If you want to
use Excel, don't use a report, just export the data to an Excel workbook and
save it.
