How to add objects to report
Our next step is to add objects from the Suppliers table to our report.
Since we've already specified our Record Source, Access gives us some nice features to quickly drop objects onto our report. In the toolbar, there is a button called Field List. It looks like a piece of paper with writing on it. Click on this button so that it is selected.
Once you do this, you should have a small window appear on your screen that looks like this.
This window lists all of the fields that are available for your report to use, based on the Record Source property.
To add one of these fields to your report, highlight the object in the window, and then drag it to the location in the report where you wish to add this object.
Here we've added four text boxes to the report - SupplierID, CompanyName, ContactName, and ContactTitle.
