Adding calculations in the footer of a report in Microsoft Access involves using the built-in functions in Access and configuring the footer section of the report. Here's how to do it step by step:
- Open the report in 'Design View' to make modifications.
- Ensure the 'Report Footer' or 'Page Footer' section is visible.
- Drag a 'Text Box' control from the toolbox to the footer section.
- In the text box, specify the calculation you want to perform.
- Select the text box and set its 'Format' property to 'Currency' in the Property Sheet.
- Click on the label icon to add a label next to the text box to describe the calculation.
- Switch to 'Report View' to see how the calculation appears in the footer.
