MS Access 2010: Caption for report

This MSAccess tutorial explains how to set up the Caption property for a report in Access 2010 (with screenshots and step-by-step instructions).

Caption Property

The Caption property is the value that displays in the title bar of your report in Access 2010.

Since we are creating a Product Report, we'll set the Caption property to "Products Report". This is a more meaningful caption to the user than a value such as Report1.

Microsoft Access

Now when we preview the report, the title at the top of the report will display the value "Products Reports".

Although our report does not yet display any data, you can see the title bar at the top of the report. It displays the value that we set in the Caption property.
