Reports based on Crosstab Query

[Guest]

I have a report based on a crosstab query (SQL below). My problem is that I
do not want my report to show fields (which are employees) when the employee
has no time, meaning when the field is null. When I remove the employee from
the column heading properties of the query, I am prompted for that employee
when I run the report (if the employee does have time). In summary, I am
wanting the employee to show up as a field heading when the employee does
have time, but not show up when the employee does not have time (when field
is null). Any help would be greatly appreciated.





PARAMETERS [Start Date? MM/DD/YY] DateTime, [End Date? MM/DD/YY] DateTime;
TRANSFORM Sum(TblTime.Hours) AS SumOfHours
SELECT TblTime.Date, Sum(TblTime.Hours) AS [Total Of Hours]
FROM TblTime
WHERE (((TblTime.Date) Between [Start Date? MM/DD/YY] And [End Date?
MM/DD/YY]))
GROUP BY TblTime.Date
PIVOT TblTime.Employee In ("AMS","DEA","LB","LVA","MLM","WFC");

The report itself is static that is why it does this. The only way I am
aware of accomplishing what you want is to build a new report each time.
Could be unworthy of the results. I would look at modifying my query (NOT
USING A CROSSTAB) to accomplish what you want.

What precisely are you trying to achieve in the report. You may have to use
some type Visible property on off to turn on only those that are not null at
the time.

Not sure without more information.

There are several samples of crosstab reports at
http://www.invisibleinc.com/divFiles.cfm?divDivID=4. The crosstab.mdb has a
report that will only include the "used" columns.

Thanks for your reply. I may be able to do what I need by modifying the
visible property in the report.

Thanks. The reports in the database don't really accomplish the same thing I
am trying to do.

Then, you didn't adequately describe your requirements.
