Ok, so I think what you're saying is you want these TWO crosstabs in ONE
report, one crosstabbing by gender, the other by Impairment. Which means
both must come off the same dataset.
A standard view won't work, yuou're right: combining the two tables to
include Gender with Impairment, you'll get these rows:
Child Table
CleintID Impairment Gender
Code
1 V M
2 V F
2 H F
3 W F
2 W F
4 H F
3 V F
4 C F
1 C F
So a crosstab of Client by Gender would give false answers
M F
1 7
instead of the correct
M F
1 3
I think that a sub-report IS your best bet - wait for 7.5. Until then, the
other choice is to
1. Base report on the view above
2. use crosstab to get your second crosstab by impairment
3. Create a view of totals by gender:
CReATE VIEW GenderTots (Gender, NumClient) as SELECT Gender, COUNT(*) FROM
MasterTable GROUP BY Gender
4. In the report, the gender crossta data is done by lookups to this table,
one for M and one for F!
