I have data in a table which I imported from a Survey Monkey excel file. I
have begun to create a report (in design view) using the fields from this table. My problem is I don't know how to separate (or group) the fields by category based on the data I have in the table. Each question in the survey is one of the fields in the Access table. Unfortunately, there is no way to tell what fields belong to which category based on the data in the table. The survey had 37 questions which were grouped by category: Professionalism - 6 questions Quality of Work - 10 questions Contribution - 5 questions Development - 5 questions Commitment - 5 questions Investment - 2 questions Performance - 3 questions Overall - 1 question I am familiar with the grouping feature in Access. However, I don't have a field that I can use to group by the above categories. I can use your help to figure out how I can get the following report layout: Professionalism: Question1 Question 2 Question 3 etc. responders name 1 responders name 2 Quality of Work: Question1 Question 2 Question 3 etc. responders name 1 responders name 2 and so on... I am using Access 2000. -- Christina |

Each question in the survey is one of the fields in the Access table.
That is a spreadsheet that has more than 37 fields. Use a union query to reformat the data like this -- Question Category Response Then use a crosstab query. -- Build a little, test a little.
