Allen, this really worked well. However, when you list the values in Column
Headings propery it shows everything whether data is there or not. Is it
possible to make the columns disappear if data is null?

Also, how do you put the labels for column headings on the Main Report? I
cannot use the column heading labels that come with crosstab report because
they keep repeating for each data on the main report.
