The Cooking Show
The local television station has decided to produce a new
cooking show. You have
been hired to manage the database of recipes they will use. You
have already
created a database in Access that stores the recipes they will use
in their first three
shows.
The producer would like for you to generate a report based on
this table. He has
specific requirements for the report. They are as follows:
1. The report should be grouped by category.
2. It should be sorted by recipe name and then by cooking time

12. in ascending
order.
3. He would like to see the average number of servings per
category group.
4. He has made a special request that you provide a printout in
the same
format as the overall report that shows only recipes that
produce 10
servings.
5. He would like the total number of recipes displayed at the
end of the report.
Based on these requirements, create the report for your
employer. Open the
Microsoft Access data file from the lesson and save it as
exp07_a04_case_sol.accdb.
Create the report based on the Recipes table. Use any report
creation method you
like and make sure to include all fields in the table. Select a
layout and style of
your own choice. Follow these additional specifications as you
create and edit the
report:
Add or change the report logo to an image of your own

13. selection.
Center all data and headings except for Recipe ID and
Category
Change the title on the report to Recipe Database
Add your name and MEID to the top right corner of the report
header
Using the view of your choice, make sure that the report is laid
out attractively on
the page. Manipulate field sizes and placement as needed.
