Also added is a calendar date selector for all date/ time formats.
Reports
Reports offer all the new features of forms but also include additional group, sort, and total features.
Sorting and grouping can be applied and automatically viewed in Report view. Simple group
totals and sums can be added to a section by selecting the section and selecting a Sum Field
option. No need to create a calculated control. Figure C-10 shows the new sorting and grouping
area, and how you set up a report group in Access 2007.

What??™s New in Access 2007 C
Macros
Microsoft is placing a large emphasis on macros in Access 2007. Much of this has to do with the
new security model. Certain macro actions, such as opening forms and reports, are considered
???safe??? and are permitted to run without any adjustments to the default Access security settings.
These macros may be embedded in forms, reports, and controls to automate many common database
operations.
