I have been hacking away at this for a while, and I feel that I'm at a dead
end on my own, any help is greatly appreciated.

I have records of parts and the dates and quaity of usage. I am trying to
total the number of each part used for a month, and then have something like
a pivot table showing each part listed down, months listed across, and
quantity used in the data. There is a record for each time the part is used.
Here is a small sample of my data.
