Chapter 2, “Modifying a Report,” the business question focused on retrieving, grouping, and summarizing field data:
Business Question: We need the resort region, resort code, and mailing information for all the resorts sorted by resort name, with totals grouped by region and showing which ones are in North America.
In this chapter, the business question is still valid, and we have a data answer already, so what needs to be done next is to format the report in a way that does justice to the data, the intent of the report, and your skills as a designer.
