Cross Tables / Crosstab Report

Postby IDEAL Software Support » Thu Nov 18, 2004 6:25 pm

I'm using VPE version 3.5 Pro. I short question: Is it possible to
create crosstables using VPE?

I will explain it a little bit:

My data structure is the following:

NAME
DATE
MEDICINE
MORNING
MIDDAY
EVENING
NIGHT

I would like to show the data in the following manner:

Smith, John:
-------------

Date Medicine1 Medicine2 .... Medicine_N
Mo Mi Ev Ni Mo Mi Ev Ni Mo Mi Ev Ni
----------------------------------------------------
01.04. 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1
02.04.
...
....
30.04.

VPE can create any output you can imagine.

Maybe this is a misunderstanding: VPE does not create any sort of tables automatically. Instead you - as a programmer - instruct VPE where to output text, lines, boxes, pictures, etc. Therefore you can easily create crosstables, but you do it by creating the layout programmatically.
