Command button in a Report

S

Is there a way I can place buttons in my report that will allow the user to
go back to the form that shows the specific record that the button is by? I
have tried to do it with macros, but something isnt working. I tried the
SearchforRecord Action as well as Findrecord, but I can't seem to get it
right. I am still pretty new at this, and would appreciate any help, Thank
you!

Reports don't have on-click events associated with controls. They are not
interactive like forms. If you want drill-down or other functionality, use a
form or forms.

Thank you for your quick response. I was able to make a Macro that will take
the user back to the form and then bring up a search box that would then be
used to find the record. I need to use a report because I need the totals
and grouping functions, I was simply trying to create a shortcut for the user
besides manually searching for the specific record. Thank you again for your
help, and I will take some time and work more with Forms to determine if they
will work better than the reports.
