Pivot table

[Aban]

Does anybody know if we can create pivot table with filemaker?

This option is available in access and I'm sure it's as well with FM but I can't find it.

Thanks for your help

.. Well, there's a pivot table, and then there's a pivot table... Do you have an example of what you're wanting to represent?

I'd like to sort, count and total data stored in my database in a cross table.

For example to show the number of people per country and city (horizontally) per age (vertically)

Cross tab samples

Hello,

As far as I can tell, these examples actually are totaling dollar amounts.

My experience with cross tabs (aka contingency tables) in statistics software (SPSS, StatView; etc.) involves using them to count individuals organized into categories.

For example, to answer the question which gender of college students is more likely to major in science, you would organize the data (the majors of a sample of individual female and male college students) into a matrix with female/male as the columns (or rows) and science/nonscience major as the rows (or columns).

The individual cells' values would be counts (and percentages) of students.

I'm trying to adapt Edoshin's cross tab to do this, but the programming is a beyond my skill level.

Can someone provide pointers on how to accomplish this?

Thanks and cheers!
