I have result of query in form

EmpId     Profit   OrderID      CompanyName
------    ------   -------     --------------
  1       500 $      1         Acme Company
  1       200 $      1          Evolve Corp. 
  2       400 $      1         Acme Company   
  2       100 $      1          Evolve Corp.
  3       500 $      1         Acme Company  
  3       500 $      1          Evolve Corp. 

Now the desired report format is

 EmpId  OrderId  Acme's Profit     Evolve's Profit
 -----  ------   -------------     ---------------
   1      1         700 $               700 $  
   2      1         500 $               500 $ 
   3      3         1000 $              1000 $ 

I tried hard at the crosstab but I'm unable to figure out how to group the records. I tried moving CompanyName in CrossTab columns and moved EmpId in rows & tried a cross tab group but results are not as expected.

My questions are 1) Is this format achievable with a cross tab ? 2) How do I group record's by EmpId's in my crosstab in such a way that the Companies are moved horizontally ?
