You're not going to get nearly the same quality of layout as Excel, but in your Report Wizard, you can choose from several different options on how your report will layout. One of these puts a rectangle around every field so that when you print out, it looks something like a spreadsheet. My best advice, though, would be to use Access for your data storage and Excel for your output: In your Access report, click Tools, Office links, Analyze it with MS Excel. Or, if you run this report frequently and want to consistently have the layout power of Excel, design a worksheet in Excel that looks exactly how you want it, then use Data, Get External Data, New Database Query, and then navigate to your database and then to the query within your database. You can set the option to have this Refresh on Open, which is quite nice.
