    3 Queries 1 Report ?

    I'm more of a searcher here than an expert, but these are the things I would try... You could try making three reports based on the three queries - insert 2 into the first as sub reports. Off the top of my head I think you can drag the sub reports into your main report, then you will have to...

    Cross-tab query dilemma..

    Now I think - but i'm not sure, that you may have to create a form to enter your parameter into so that it is open with the date entered when you load up the report - it might be worth bringing this up in the reports forum to see if anyone there can help...

    Cross-tab query dilemma..

    It is something to do with the parameters.. With the query open in design view go to Query/Parameters on the menu and put in your parameters and data type - e.g "START DATE" / Date/Time and "END DATE" / Date/Time Now if you refer to these in the query it should recognise them.... HTH :)

    leaving fields blank with no data (in a report)

    In the crosstab query on which the report is based, go to the column heading properties and put in fixed column headings in the Column headings property e.g. "1", "2", "3", ".....14" All the headings will always then appear no matter if there is data for them or not. That should help.. :)

    selecting fields without numbers

    if only it were my data table - then I might try to work out what this normalisation lark is all about ;) Unfortunately that is how these codes are set in the source data - from another system - and I need to extract a certain few lines to append to another table...

    selecting fields without numbers

    Quick question - I have a set of data that goes A1, AS, A2, A6, BM, B2, GF, T3, 1B, 3G, etc... I would like to select only the fields where there are no numbers - so from the above set it would be AS, BM and GF. Can't quite suss it :confused: cheers Jim
