    Query and reporting possibilities?

    Hi, I registered this morning as this site was recommended.  I am a a Sharepoint noob I'm afraid therefore this question may be painfully easy!

    I am looking to develop near replicas of MS Access databases I've created using Sharepoint 2003.  I can see that I can link tables/lists together and create expressions within a table in a similar fashion to what I'm used to.

    However, in order to really produce meaningful solutions for my workplace I need to adopt queries on the list data and generate some reports that look similar to MS Access/MS Excel forms that are currently generated for people to sign off.

    What possibilities are there to produce queries that end-user don't see and reports on those queries that users can select and print off?

    Many thanks for any help you can give me with this.

    You may have to build your reports (assuming there pretty much a fixed format, etc) from scratch, you could use Sharepoint Designer (SPD) to create the required reports, take a look at these basic guides to see if it gets you started :)
