Hi,
I have a funding table which has records listed per year for a business case. BUsiness case is the parent table & the funding table is the child table with a one-to-many relationship.
Each business case can therefore have one funding record listed which shows 1 year or it can have many funding records for a number of years. The years will fall into 2007-2012 as this is the length of business case timeline.
EG, Business case 1 has funding record £5000 for 2007.
Business case 2 has funding records £3000 for 2009, £5000 for 2010, £7000 for 2011.
For a main report that i have, i have to list the year data grouped by the year so i have totals for each year BUT i'm struggling to figure out how to do this because i need to list all possible years in a matrix. Further more, this needs to be grouped by the project lead field so it lists all possible years of funding per person (each project lead can be a lead for 1 or more cases).
EG,
Joe Bloggs (project lead) (lead of 3 business cases grouped in the following totals)
year - total (£)
2007 - £10000
2008 - NULL
2009 - £20000
2010 - £15000
2011 - NULL
2012 - £4000
Jim Bob (project lead) (lead of 1 business case grouped in the following totals)
year - total (£)
2007 - NULL
2008 - NULL
2009 - £200
2010 - NULL
2011 - NULL
2012 - £3500
I created a static table to hold the years as records in the table. I then tried to link this table with my funding table as a right outer join to show all records from the year table but this shows the related years and then the additional years as single entiries. I need to seperate the records so ALL years are listed for each project lead & the amounts are summed by year.
I know this is a bit confusing so i hope i have explained this well. Can anyone help with this one?
Regards,
Shuja

I've managed to find a possible solution using cross joins. See the following thread for more detail:
thanks for your help.
