Create an Access report with a Datasheet view

When you create a report in Microsoft Access with a Datasheet view, you create a linked table with the data in the Datasheet view and generate a report based on the data.

  1. In the Datasheet view toolbar, click Task Pane to display the Task Pane for the Datasheet view.
  2. Click Report with Access.
  3. Choose to export the Datasheet to an existing database or a new database and click OK.

Access prompts you to specify the location of the database and opens a linked table with the exported data. It uses AutoReport to generate a report that displays all the fields and records in the linked table. For more information on AutoReport, see "Create a report" in Access help.
