I use crosstab query to create a report A , which works totally fine, then I insert report B which also has a crosstab query as a subreport, I got an error message said: "You can't use a pass-through query or a non-fixed-column crosstab query as a record source for a subform or subreport". Both reports are working fine seprately, but I couldn't put them together. Any help is much appriciated!!
 
..."you can't use"..."a non-fixed-column crosstab query "
Have you tried 'fixing' the columns on your crosstab query? Open the query in design mode, right click to get to the query's properties and look for column headings. I think that once you fix the column headings to specific names, you'll have a shot at this.
