create letterhead in Microsoft Access

[Rupe]

I would like to create a report in MS Access that will have my letterhead,
and will omit the title of my database. If this can be accomplished, then I
would appreciate assistance. Thanks, Paul

I have create hundreds of reports in Access and I don't recall any of them
that had the title of the database printed/displayed on them. You might be
able to duplicate your letterhead in either the Report Header or Page Header
section.

Rupe, I think you've puzzled everyone. Are you talking about the way that
the wizard puts the name of your *report* into the Report Header?

You can just edit that in Report Design View. You can also put in a logo if
it has been created as a picture file. There are a few ways to do this but
if you choose the wrong one your database will bloat. Write back if this is
what you want.

Or are you talking about the Caption that appears at the top of the report's
window which again, has the name of the Report (not the database)?

If you have inherited a report then you may have a text box in it somewhere
that says something like =Name

This would put the file path to your database into the report. You can just
delete this text box if you don't want that.

Actually placing =Name in a text box would most likely display the report
name. You would have to use =Currentdb.Name or other.

Good trouble-shooting on the issue.
