MS Access CrossTab query - across 3 tables
- by Prembo
Hi,
I have the following 3 tables:
1) Sweetness Table
FruitIndex CountryIndex Sweetness
1 1 10
1 2 20
1 3 400
2 1 50
2 2 123
2 3 1
3 1 49
3 2 40
3 3 2
2) Fruit Name Table
FruitIndex FruitName
1 Apple
2 Orange
3 Peaches
3) Country Name Table
CountryIndex CountryName
1 UnitedStates
2 Canada
3 Mexico
I'm trying to perform a CrossTab SQL query to end up with:
Fruit\Country UnitedStates Canada Mexico
Apple 10 20 400
Orange 50 123 1
Peaches 49 40 2
The challenging part is to label the rows/columns with the relevant names from the Name tables.
I can use MS Access to design 2 queries,
create the joins the fruit/country names table with the Sweetness table
perform crosstab query
However I'm having trouble doing this in a single query. I've attempted nesting the 1st query's SQL into the 2nd, but it doesn't seem to work.
Unfortunately, my solution needs to be be wholly SQL, as it is an embedded SQL query (cannot rely on query designer in MS Access, etc.).
Any help greatly appreciated.
Prembo.
