We should be able to generate reports as PDFs with a password. MS Word has an encryption option when saving a Word Doc to PDF.

For security reasons, more and more organizations want to have encrypted data at rest and in emails. ACCDBs support encryption, so it'd be helpful if it's PDF outputs could too.

It should be available from the user interface and as an option programmatically (DoCmd.OutputTo acFormatPDF).

The Vertical Text property rotates text 90º but it is not possible to rotate 270º or other. There are many people searching for this feature over the internet for years now, but there has been no solution for this feature built in access until now. There are many workarounds, but very complicated. Hope more people find this usefull

Many of my Clients ask for interactive reports for example the ability to change a Manager name by means of a Combo box, but still have the facility to print in a nicely formatted way. It is more intuitive than having to enter criteria in a form which the user then has to click on to see the corresponding report.

This feature will also make reports easier to use for the semi-skilled Access User and provide a much more powerful Reporting System..

Microsoft Access is pretty nice when it comes to reporting. The biggest drawback with reporting in a production environment is that it is bound to the application... i.e. many times customers want a small change on reports and you have to distribute a whole new version just to make a minor change that may have only taken 5 minutes! You should give Access report the ability to be exportable into a file format like SSRS or Crystal... this way we can edit and replace reports without having to re version the full applicaton.

The button should be at the top and not be visible on the printed report.

Users are perplexed when there is no obvious way to close a Report in Print Preview. The Ribbon may not be visible and users may not realise they can Right Click to show the Context Menu.

Emailing Reports from Stand alone Access 2016 no longer works if installed after March 2018. The workaround is to use Office 365.

It's an Office Product! should a PDF export look better than your own product? I do not even know why Reports have the ability to export to word because they look horrible! I think it would be better if you just took away that feature all together if your not going to fix it... because really who exports to Word when it looks like that?

In print preview and normal view, if a supreport is empty, it gets hidden. Please do the same for Report view.

In classic charts and/or Excel you can show the data table for the related chart underneath. Need to add that functionality to the new Modern Charts in Access. I have some classic charts that do this already but the development time using that outdated Active X control is frustrating.

On opening reports the ribbon is always visible. Please provide ability to set ribbon default to collapse.

I think this would be an easy one! Given the helpfulness and ease of use of the report/form wizards, there should be a simplistic way to be able to go back to those menus and make edits as needed.

Similar to the new page property, it should be extended to allow a new sheet. Otherwise, you may get in duplex print scenarios information onto the back of your sheet that has got nothing to do with the front page.
In normal print, there would be no difference to the new page property, but in duplex print it would insert a blank page to start the next record on a new sheet.

.SizeMode = acOLESizeZoom

If using a picture Box in a report with .SizeMode = acOLESizeZoom
the image will not be displayed or printed.

Cannot change report font when forecolor is set to automatic (black), because after changing the font and saving the report in design view, changes won't save and the font will default back to Arial.

in my access form, there was a yellow triangle caution symbol to the left of the minimize, shrink, and close. I didn't know what's wrong. so I suggest when you put your cursor over that symbol, Access tells you the problem.

En la Vista informes de un informe con grupos, podemos ir a un determinado grupo y filtrar por no coincidentes con respecto al campo por el que se agrupa.

Si este comportamiento lo consiguiéramos con un botón para mostrar u ocultar ese item del grupo, la Vista Informes tendría la funcionalidad de un TreeView
