INF: Layout Preview Ignores Query
'Article ID: Q96584

Creation Date: 22-MAR-1993

Revision Date: 01-DEC-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Access versions 2.0, 7.0, 97

SUMMARY

Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.

When you open a report in Layout Preview (or Sample Preview in version 2.0), Microsoft Access does not correctly display data from the query on which your report is based.

MORE INFORMATION

The Layout Preview option for reports provides an accurate view of the layout of the report. However, the Layout Preview option ignores any criteria or joins in the underlying query upon which the report is based. The option is designed as a speed enhancement to view the look and feel of your report.

To open a report in Layout Preview, click Layout Preview on the View menu (or Sample Preview on the File menu in version 2.0).

The data that you see displayed in this Layout Preview is based directly on the table used in the report's underlying query. If more than one table is in this query, the Layout Preview erroneously combines records from the two tables.
