Put a button on all Reports to allow them to be closed
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.

Whereas most developers put a Close button on a form, it is not possible to do this for a Report in Print Preview.
When I develop for the average user, they are looking for a clearly marked Close button.
Although there are several ways round this problem, it makes it a lot easier to have a clearly marked Close button on the Print Preview report.

My motto to all users of our databases is: When In Doubt, Right Click. Pretty much everyone has got it by now.
Also, what is wrong with clicking the X in the upper right hand corner of the Report ?
