Hello to all,

I have a parent table, main contract information. And then a child table for salary data for each year the main contract covers. A one to many.

I want to develop a report like this:

Clerk/Typist Salaries

County District 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08

Albany Albany City SD 11.50 12.24 12.70
Bethlehem SD 12.00 12.28 12.54


Any ideas? Should I use a report with a sub-report.

Thanks to all that reply. Any examples welcomed.
 
First, if you are building a report, you should use the report forum (forum703) to get more specific answers.

Second, you would not have to use a subreport in this case most likely, but it will depend somewhat on your data. Create a query that shows all the columns you want, then use the ReportWizard to build a report based off this query, and group it by county...

That should produce what you want.
