      Thank you for your reply but In the Designer tab in Project -----> components menu I found Following:
      Addin Class
      Data Environment
      Data Report
      DHTML Report
      DTC Designer
      Microsoft Forms 2.0 Form
      Microsoft USerConnection
      WebClass

      There is nothing like Report designer
      Does VB provide any Report other than Data Report.

          Thank you for your support but May be I am not able to clear my problem.

          Actually I want to display something in Report like heading, some data from MS-Access file. Is it possible through “DataReport”? If yes, then how?

              I have added Data Report by Right Clicking in Project Explorer in my project.
              But when I try to change the Data source, it give error:"Invalid Data source" at run time even though file exist at specified location.

                I think you add a Data Environment in the project. In Data Environment's connection1 right click and set its properties like Provider and Connection. Provider may be Jet 3.51 and in connection set name of database file. Now add a command and set its properties in which set name of table in the database from which you want to get records. Now design Data Report as per your requirement. That's all.
