I have tom ake a report with data from one table giving some information about something (general information) but beside of that we have events on this main item. If I make a normal report I can list de main information in a row and just under that row de events. The number of events is unknwon.
I would have a layout like this
TaskNr. Description Creation Date
Taks 1 Test Reporting Services 10/06/2008
Event 1 Started
Event 2 Interupted
Event 3 closed
Task 2 Another test 11/06/2008
Event 1 Started
Task 3 .....
etc....
But this is not the way I want the report. It should have the following layout
TaskNr. Description Creation Date Event 1 Event 2 Event 3 ....
Taks 1 Test Reporting Services 10/06/2008 Started Interupted Closed
Task 2 Another test 11/06/2008 Started
Taks 3
As you can see the collums of the reports are not fixed but are depending of the events I get for a task. It is possible that I have 15 events, so there should be 15 additional collums (Event 1 up to event 15).
I hope I succeded to explain what I want
Another example would be the following.
I have products in a product table, in another tabel I have a record for each delivery of that product whit a delivery date and a quantity.
If I want to create a report which tells me when and how much of each product was delevered for a give period then it should look like this:
Produc Nr. Description 01/06/2008 18/06/2008 14/06/2008 etc....
1254 product 1 5 8
1589 Product 2 12
etc...
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

A matrix report will do what you describe.
