Hi all,

I have a MTD consolidation (average) by category problem that I desparately
need your help. Here is what my data source may look like:

DATE NAME SCORE
1/1/2006 John 8.70
1/11/2006 Donna 7.80
1/21/2006 Lucy 9.10
1/25/2006 Donna 8.60
1/31/2006 John 9.90
2/3/2006 John 8.80
2/10/2006 Lucy 9.50
2/20/2006 Donna 9.80
3/2/2006 Jane 9.00
3/7/2006 John 9.50
3/12/2006 Donna 9.20
3/22/2006 Lucy 8.90
3/30/2006 Donna 9.00

Here is what my report would look like:

MONTH NAME MTD AVE YTD AVE
JAN Donna 8.20 8.20
JAN John 9.30 9.30
JAN Lucy 9.10 9.10
FEB Donna 9.80 9.30
FEB John 8.80 9.13
FEB Lucy 9.50 8.73
MAR Donna 9.10 9.17
MAR Jane 9.00 9.23
MAR John 9.50 8.88
MAR Lucy 8.90 9.00

Since the date range varies for each month, how would you define your
monthly date range in order to make the consolidation by category and by
month easier and dynamic?

Thanks so much!

Sally
