Tom the specific problem is that I use pivot tables to express the data
contained in excel spreadsheets that typically contain 100 to 200 columns and 20 to 30 thousand rows. The need is to show mutiple fields some of which contain numbers and others contain only names such as last name, town etc. One of the problems that I would like to show is what % of the people (last names) reside in a particular town, and what is the average revenue for the people in each town etc. "Tom Ogilvy" wrote: Is this some type of assignment where the solution approach is specified? -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "casepaul1" wrote in message ...
