Default report doesn't display more than one record for each parameter

I have a report the is supposed to output several lines per a users input. It
goes like this.

User inputs a workshopID such as "media day"

Then the report is supposed to pull all comments for "media day" and outputs
them into the report. The problem is that it only outputs one comment instead
of every comment with the workshopid media day.

I have tried putting the text boxes in header, detail areas of the report,
however it still only shows one comment instead of many.

Does anybody know what could be causing this?

-Misty

You need to back up a couple of steps and get the report's
record source working before you try fooling with the
report.

The first step is to create a query that returns the needed
records and fields. At this point I can't tell if
everything is in one table or if you need to join multiple
tables.

If your need assistance doing that, please post the name of
each table that's involved and their important fields along
with an explation of how the tables are related.
