Where do I get codes from?

[Lady123]

Hi, I'm a new user of MS Access and I need to find out where to find the
codes for formulate reports in the system. Most of my report are very basic,
but I'm not able to find where to go to enter any fuctions or sums for
fields....Can someone advise me on this...also, does anyone know how to tell
the system to calculate a blank field. For example, if I want to run a report
that shows no completion dates or the fields are blank, how would I do that?
I know this is very basic, but I haven't used MS Access in years and I'm not
sure where to go to retrieve info....

A common approach to building reports is to use queries first to return the
records you'll want to see, before then building reports based on those
queries.

Can you build a query that gets what you're after?
