Query a crosstab query
Hi,
I have a cross tab query that returns me sales peoples sales on YTD basis.
So i have sales x, sales April, Sales May
Unfortunately as the data is YTD, the only way we can view month by month basis is to subtract May from April, and the uplift in sales is Mays figures
So can i create a query that looks at columns May and April and returns all sales people with the uplift data i.e May minus April
In the attached spreadsheet i added a column to show the expected result
Many thanks

Also post the SQL for your cross tab returning YTD
ASKER
The YTD data is bought in via excel, into a linked table. So im thinking calc fields?
i.e May - Apr = May Actual
i.e May - Apr = May Actual

So, i run a simple append query to create static tables, the append query builds up month on month data
Now i am trying to seperate that data into a month by month view, i cant just flag it by date as the data is received YTD, so i must subtract this months YTD from last months YTD
