Creating a Crosstab Query
The basic means of storing and presenting data in Access is the table, which is essentially a list of information about a group of “things” (such as customer orders) related to a single primary key value. Another way to present data is in a crosstab query, which relates one value (such as a total or an average) with two other values (such as a customer and a month).
