Hey Joanne,
I'm creating a training document and it always seems to bring up questions.
Am I looking at data IN a report or ON a report? Any suggestions?
Depends on the reference. If you're talking about information contained
IN the report, then there's your answer. If, however, you're talking about
information that REFERENCES the report, possibly INCLUDES the report, then
it would be ON instead. See where I'm going?
