Columnar Report

Columnar reports are the most common type used because information is arranged in useful columns and rows.

The report contains three regions:

The page heading contains the report title that was assigned during the design process.
The detail region contains the values of each field selected for inclusion in the report under their respective headings.
The page footer of a columnar report will initially be empty, allowing you to supply any system- or user-defined values of your choosing.

To create a columnar report:

Select File > New from the main menu.
Select Columnar Report and click Next.
Select an information category and click Next.
In the Field Selection window, select the fields you want to include in the report. Click Next.
In the Report Grouping window, define the basic sort order for the report. Click Next.
In the Report Details window, name the report and indicate where the report is to be run.
Select Finish. If you selected to view the report before running it, the Report Design window is displayed.
