    Access 2007 Creating a Report from Multiple Queries

    Hello,

    I just started using Access 2007 after using Access 2003 for a long
    time. I've created all my queries and they work fine. However, either
    I forgot or it has changed but, how do I create a report based off of
    multiple queries?

    I tried using the report wizard using one query. In the Properties
    sheet of the report, the record source for the report only shows one
    query. But if I try and add another text box and add the control
    source being the value from another query, it thinks I'm asking for a
    parameter when I run the report.

    And if I try to choose more than one query in the report wizard, I get
    the error: "You have chosen fields from record sources which the
    wizard can't connect...."

    Please help, this is frustrating.

    Thank you,
    Brett

      Thanks. I've actually discovered the wonderful world of subreports,
      which has solved my problem. Now I have other issues...(which will be
      other posts).

        I'm glad the subreports worked for you. To me, they seem to come up
        short for use in group footers :-).
