CRXI

When creating a crosstab, I need to sort the columns in specified order. The rows are dates:

                UserName
                GROSS    |    NET    |    SCHEDULE  |    IMMEDIATE  (<----- this column is "specified order")
DATE


The second column is sorted in "specified order".

I name the groups in specified order and then I define each group using options like "Is Like" and "Starts With". No problems there.
However, not all colums appear! For example, "IMMEDIATE" doesnt appear.
But if I change the order in the "specified order" tab, for example I let "IMMEDIATE" be the first column instead of "GROSS" then it suddenly appears (with the correct data)! But then again, I may lose "NET" or "SCHEDULE".

Does anyone know what's going on here?

Solved.
IMMEDIATE has elements in it which are a subset of NET.
Therefore, CR XI has problems figuring out which column to choose. It picks just the first occurance it sees (determined by the order in cross tab expert).
 
Solution:
Make sure none of the elements in a coumn is also part of another column.

What do you mean "subset of NET"? I'm confused about what actually caused you problems. Can you explain a little more?

I'll gladly do but not this weekend. Let's wait until I am at work so I copy the cross table setup.
