I need to put in some code to test values on a form and
produce report headings based on values in the form. Its
too complex to put in the report.
Should I use the 'report open' event procedure or
the 'report activate' event procedure? I'm not sure what
the difference is.
 
Without knowing more it's hard to say, but the Open as well as the Report's
section Format events sound good.

Be aware that the Report Activate event ONLY fires when the report is
previewed, so you shouldn't use it for anything if the report is to be
printed without preview.
