John,
Congratulations! you got the solution.
But i cannot see any file, detail about table or some other thing. Are you still working on it?
Waiting...

Khalid-

I built a solution that uses a "working" table.  The report prompts you for a year (you could also get the value from an open form), runs the Crosstab filtered for the year, then dumps the result into the working table.  It modifies the captions on the labels to reflect the actual field names from the filtered data.  Note that the sample report is set up to handle up to 10 Consignment Number values.  If there are more than that in a year, it will warn you and display only the first 10.

Well, I tried to apply the KB article solution to Khalid's problem, but I ran into an ancient (since 2002) bug when the report tries to apply a sort to the modified Crosstab query.  The error message is "Cannot use the crosstab of a non-fixed column as a subquery."  Here's the old KB article on the error:


It's probably going to require dumping the filtered result into a temp table, which I think is what Duane's solution does.  I may play with it some more and will post again if I get a solution.

Duane,
I have uploaded the file PCTL_be in which you will find all the tables.

I hope this would suffice and you can do your working. Anxious for your achievement.

Khalid

I fairly certain the solution would work. I would not use the whole unbound KB solution since it is bloated with code and less efficient. I would be will to try create a sample if I had the Clients and CollectionVoucher tables.
 
However, I wonder if a simple multi-column subreport would work. Does a ConsignmentNo link to more than one client? If not, base the main report on the unique ClientCIN only. Then display the ConsignmentNo and Count of CartonNo across then down. Allow the subreport grow.

Duane-

I don't think your sample database is going to help Khalid.

Khalid-

You need to do something similar to the technique described in the KB article:


Basically, you create unbound text boxes and companion labels in your report and give them names that can be easily indexed in code like txtBox01, txtBox02, etc. and lbl01, lbl02, etc.  In the Open event of the Report, dynamically create the Record Source SQL adding the filter for the year you want.  Then open the query as a Recordset and use the column names to set the label Caption properties.  When you have more labels / text boxes defined that are returned by the query, hid the extra ones.

In the Format event of the Detail section, grab the fields from the current row and put them in the text boxes in a loop.

Duane,
Well thank you very much for describing the bases of your CrossTab Report.
This reminds me long ago when i do work in FoxPro DOS. I understand the concepts of DO WHILE and LOOPS in FoxPro. But i have up to now never tried this in Access.

At present i have a simple Report based on query "CollectionVoucher_Crosstab" with the Sql:

TRANSFORM Count(CollectionVoucher.CartonNo) AS CountOfCartonNo
SELECT CollectionVoucher.ClientCIN, Count(CollectionVoucher.CartonNo) AS [Total Of CartonNo]
FROM Clients INNER JOIN CollectionVoucher ON Clients.ClientCIN = CollectionVoucher.ClientCIN
GROUP BY CollectionVoucher.ClientCIN
ORDER BY CollectionVoucher.ClientCIN, CollectionVoucher.ConsignmentNo
PIVOT CollectionVoucher.ConsignmentNo;

As per current data this report shows 15 Columns for ConsignmentNo

Would these columns (ConsignmentNo) give us no problem as they will be increasing year by year. Approximately 8 - 10 or more new ConsignmentNo are allotted in a year. OR should we make our report for a specific Year of Consignment.

ConsignmentNo is Text field, Field Size 9, Input Mask 9999\-A\-99;;- where Left 4 digits denotes year of ConsignmentNo

Waiting for your further guidance and suggestions.
Regards,
Khalid

If your column names in your crosstab are going to vary over time and based on filters, the solution from the demo should be applicable.  There is a table in the Access file that describes how the solution works.
 
This is the information from the table:
Explanation
Are you familiar with Crosstab Queries? Crosstab queries will dynamically create columns/fields based on each unique value of a particular field in your query. I my demo, I used customer names as columns.
The problem is:
1) the number of columns created by the crosstab will vary based on the number of customers during a particular period of time, the type of products included in your report, and the sales persons reported. There might be 2 or there might be 20. We don't know until the crosstab is run.
 
2) reports expect a certain number of fields in their record source. This generally isn't a problem since we base most reports on fields/columns from a query in which the fields don't change. The records will change but the same base columns will generally be available. Since Crosstab queries will vary in the number and names of fields, reporting them takes some work arounds.
 
My method starts with a desire to predefine the column/field names in the report. This could be numbers, colors, or whatever. I chose letters of the alphabet since they easily afford up to 26 columns, alphabetic order is something we all understand, they have an ASCII value that converts to numbers using the ASC() function, and "A" is easier to type then "Yellow".
 
I can now create an "alias" table of two fields, the customer name and the associated letter of the alphabet. If I include this table in my crosstab and link the customer names, I can use the associated letter as the column heading.
 
This works fine except that different sales people will sell to different customers. So we add a salesperson field to the "alias" table. We can create a totals query "qappEmpCust" that will append every unique combination of salesperson and customer to the Alias table. I then use code to loop through the table and assign the letters "A-F" or whatever.
 
This works fine until one salesperson sells to more than 6 customers. So, I add another field that describes the level (couldn't find a better term). The code loop then assigns level 0 letters A-F and then increments to level 1 and starts over at A etc.
 
The final piece was to provide column headings. This was done using a label type subreport where the link master child fields reference the Salesperson and Level displaying the customer names rather than A-F.
 
All of this together allows me to successfully report the result of a crosstab query regardless of the number of potential columns and their names. The report also runs much faster than a solution provided in the Microsoft sample Solutions.MDB.
 
Are you even more confused? To be honest with you, I have to re-think what I did each time a create a new report. One of my employees has used this method for about 6-8 reports. She figures this method has saved her a couple days of development time and kept a client much more satisfied.

Duane,
Sorry for that i first did not opened the CrossTab application from Rogers Access Library. Now i did opened and viewed it.

How can i use it for my purpose? Could you please guide further.

Regards,
Khalid

Did you try the version available from RogersAccessLibrary.com? It should have opened fine in Access 2003. When you asked for an updated version, I assumed you had Access 2010 or later.

Duane,
i have downloaded the file and un-zipped it, it has the extension .accdb. I think this is Access 2007 file and i am using Microsoft Office 2003 with Access 2003, when i try to open it from Access 2003 i cannot see it in the list.

What should i do. I also need to know if i install Office 2007 and run Access 2007, will i face problems in running my database in Access 2003  into Access 2007 and in future will i face problems in doing coding and would i be able to do it up to my present knowledge of Access 2003?

There is a solution for creating crosstab reports at http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/forum/cross-tab_topic11.html. This solution allows the creation of any number of columns (you decide). If you want 10 columns but 13 columns are generated, the 3 extra are rendered under the first 10.
 
It looks like the demo file is quite old. If you need an updated version, let me know.
