Hello, Microsoft Word

7. Try it: Review the Document

Go to the Documents Folder.

Open a File: Movies by Year.rtf

 

What Do You See? The movies have been grouped by Year: 2012, 2011, 2010.

All of the Fields from tblMovies have been exported: Year, Movie, MovieID, Rating, Genre, Stars and RentalID.


What Else Do You See? Like the Excel spreadsheet, this is a simple data output. The file is in Rich Text Format. It does not have all of the formatting that is in a Word Document. 

 

For example, this output looks like it is a Table with Rows and Columns. However, if you click in the data you will see it is just Text with spaces between Text- no Tables.  

 

Where Are We? The goal was to export the data into Microsoft Word so that we could format the report. That we have done. Please Close the Rich Text Format (rft) file. Back in Access, Close the Report in Print Preview.
