MS Access 2003: Caption for report

This MSAccess tutorial explains how to set up the Caption property for a report in Access 2003 (with screenshots and step-by-step instructions).

Caption Property

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

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

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