MS Access is a highly flexible, robust, and reliable database program. Microsoft Access is the leading relational database management system in the world. We are a Microsoft Access developer company creating database applications for your business.

SQL Server

Microsoft Access Programmer Information

Call MS Access Solutions at (323) 285-0939 For Complimentary Consultation

The following material is shared here to indicate our commitment to professional Microsoft Access programmer services in the Springfield IL area. Access programming for business is highly complex and requires dedication and skill to create a high quality database application. We wrote the book on Microsoft Access prgramming, so you know you will get the best possible Access database solution for your business.

Using Crosstab Queries

A crosstab query summarizes query results by displaying one field in a table down the left side of the datasheet and additional facts across the top of the datasheet. A crosstab query can, for example, summarize the dollars sold by a salesperson to each company. You can place the name of each company in the query output's left-most column, and you can display each salesperson across the top. The dollars sold appear in the appropriate cell of the query output.

Crosstab queries are probably one of the most complex and difficult queries to create. For this reason, Microsoft offers a Crosstab Query Wizard. The following sections explain the methods for creating a crosstab query with and without the Crosstab Query Wizard.

Creating a Crosstab Query with the Crosstab Query Wizard

Follow these steps to design a crosstab query with the Crosstab Query Wizard:

1. Select Query Wizard from the Other group on the Create tab.

2. Select Crosstab Query Wizard and click OK.

3. Select the table or query that will act as a foundation for the query. If you want to include fields from more than one table in the query, you'll need to base the crosstab query on another query that has the tables and fields you want. Click Next.

4. Select the fields whose values you want to use as the row headings for the query output. Click Next.

5. Select the field whose values you want to use as the column headings for the query output. Click Next.

6. The Crosstab Query Wizard asks you to specify what field stores the number you want to use to calculate the value for each column and row intersection. Click Next.

7. Specify a name for your query. When you're done, click Finish.

Notice the Crosstab row of the query grid. The CompanyName field is specified as the row heading and is used as Group By columns for the query. The Employee field is included as a column heading; it is also used as a Group By for the query.

The Total is specified as a value. The Total cell for the column indicates that this field will be summed (as opposed to being counted, averaged, and so on).

Notice the column labeled Total of Total. This column displays the total of all the columns in the query. It's identical to the column containing the value except for the alias in the field name and the fact that the Crosstab cell is set to Row Heading rather than Value.
