Let me clarify a little more about what I'm trying to achieve. In a
workbook, I have a worksheet with a table of data. On a seperate worksheet
in the workbook, I want to create a report analyzing the data. For instance,
in the worksheet I have data broken down like this:

"Date" "Account #" "Error Message1"
1/1/2008 12345678 Failed
1/1/2008 87654321 Failed
1/2/2008 12345678 Failed
1/3/2008 12345678 Passed

I want to create a report that will count the total number of "Failed"
responses in the "ErrorMessage1" column on 1/1/2008, on 1/2/2008, on
1/3/2008, etc. With the number and types of errors on each specified date.

Try a Pivot Table with Date and Account # as a Row Fields, Error Message1 as
Column Field and Data Item.

That doesn't seem to be working either. I can calculate the totals that I'm
looking for without specifying a date, but I want to track by a date.


What do you mean by "doesn't work"? When I do a Pivot Table using your sample
data as instructed above (without the Account # in the Row Field), I get
something like the following:


Error Message1
Date Failed Passed Grand Total
1/1/2008 2 2
1/2/2008 1 1
1/3/2008 1 1
Grand Total 3 1 4



If that's not close to what you want, then I would need to see an example of
what you are looking for to help further.
