I have an already created database in MS Access 2003. It has forms that are used to enter data into tables. I want to create a report that shows the values entered through the forms. I am trying to find where the data gets stored when entered through the form so that I can create a report on that table, and I am not able to find it. Can someone please tell me how I can do this?

2Can you open the form in design view and look at the query or table which is its record source? – HelloW Nov 12 '12 at 17:51

I would add an additional field to your back end tables, and write the name of the form directly into the record. That way you can query it later.

There are so many tables in the database, should I query all the tables to find out where information is going? And then that would give me an overhead of adding and deleting fields in the tables – amir shadaab Nov 12 '12 at 17:39

1I am afraid I consider this to be a very strange answer and I cannot see that it has any real value. – Fionnuala Nov 12 '12 at 20:47
