the States table, and all the fields except for CampusNo from the Campus table.

3. View your data by States, do not add any more grouping levels.

7. Open the Campus Instructors report and view in Report View. Notice that the CampusName and Address fields are
not wide enough to show all the data. Switch to Design View and expand the size of the CampusName label so that it
is about two inches wide. Then expand the size of the Address label so that it is about two inches wide. View in
Report view to confirm the change.

8. Switch back to Design view and open the Group, Sort, and Total pane, then add a CampusNo Footer section.

9. Add a text box to the CampusNo Footer section, just below the LName text box.

10. Modify the caption of the label to the left of the new text box in the CampusNo Footer section to read Count: , move
the caption label close to the text box, and right-align the text within the caption label.

11. Enter an expression in the new text box in the CampusNo Footer section to count the values in the LName field,
=Count([LName]) , and left-align the values within the text box. View the report using the Report View. The report
should look similar to Figure 2. Save and close the Campus Instructors report.

Save your changes, compact and repair the database, and exit Access. Submit your work in the week 4 Assignment
