Default Form Building Question

Hi, I am obviously way freshcut on this, but am I correct in thinking that
Forms do not show or print details? Is the recommended format then to create
the form for online use and then a report for printing? I have done a few
online courses, reviewed recommended websites (from here and other sources)
and have not seen this related anywhere.
Additionally, if you have any other online courses you can recommend to me,
I would be eternally grateful.

Thanks, - PJ

Absolutely.

Highly recommended that you use Reports for printing, and forms for
editing/viewing data online.

Reports give much more flexibility.
