To see what the RichText report looks like with data, you can preview it in the Preview view or in preview mode.
To preview the report in preview mode:
Select File>Run/Preview from the menu bar, or click the Run/Preview button on the PowerBar.
Select Rows>Retrieve from the menu bar.
Data While previewing the report in preview mode, or when focus is in the Preview view, you can use the scroll buttons in the Preview toolbar to move from row to row, and you can change data in the input fields. The changes you make, however, do not affect the data in the database.
Text Any changes you make to the rich text in the Preview view will not be reflected in the Design view. Any changes that you want to keep must be made in the Design view, not in preview.
If the Display Only setting is checked, you cannot change text or data in the Preview view.
Print Preview displays a reduced view of one row of data as it would appear when printed.
To see the report in Print Preview:
Click in the Preview view to make it the current view.
Select File>Print Preview.
In Print Preview, you can test different margin settings and scroll through the pages of the document.
You cannot scroll to view other rows of data.
Any changes you make to settings in Print Preview are discarded when you return to the Design view.
