    Try this...

    create table #pvt (name varchar(100), Date datetime) alter table #pvt alter column date datetime

    insert into #pvt (Name, Date) values ('A','1/1/07')

    insert into #pvt (Name, Date) values ('B','12/2/07')

    insert into #pvt (Name, Date) values ('C','1/1/08')

    select * from #pvt

    select name, [2007-01-01 00:00:00.000] as '1/1/07' ,[2007-12-02 00:00:00.000] as '12/2/07', [2008-01-01 00:00:00.000] as '1/1/08'

    from (

    select name, Date from #pvt) up

    pivot (count(Date) for [Date] IN ([2007-01-01 00:00:00.000],[2007-12-02 00:00:00.000], [2008-01-01 00:00:00.000])) as pvt
