Give them a selection criteria that lets them specify that they want the transactions that occurred between 1/17/02 and 2/7/02. Instead of having them wade through pages and pages of a report to find out that pages 24.5 through 37.25 contain the actual date range they are interested in.

...i agree...and if i may add...

depending on your report and the context, the person actually looking
at the report on paper may or may not realize that the data has been
filtered as David recommends (and it may or may not matter, but...)
i have gotten into the habit of including a section at the top of the
report that indicates what selection criteria was used to produce this particular version of the report.
