Using a form as a base for a report

[forest8]

Hi

I've set up a form for users to enter data for their students.

I would like to create a report based on the same form since I've set it up
logically. Is there an easy way to convert a form into a report?

The only difference is that I want to create a lookup function so that if
you only want to print the report for a particular student you will enter his
name and all the details will print out.

If this is not the right area for this question, please direct me to the
correct forum.

Thanks

In most versions of Access, you can save a form as a report and Access does
most of the heavy lifting for you.

You should be able to right click the form in the database window and choose
"Save As" and select As Report
