While I am not sure this is close to your problem, it might give you some
ideas. The IDUG Solutions Guide for October 2001 (not posted on the web site
yet, V8 #3 www.idug.org) has an interesting approach to cartesian products
that sort of sounds like what you are trying to do. If you can not locate a
copy, send me an email off-line at hweatherly@dlis.dla.mil with a fax number
and I will send it to you.

I have been racking my brain on this for the past few days, and have scanned
the net for help, but I still have not come up with a solution that I can
grasp yet...

Does anybody know how I would create, an SQL program that would allow me to
create a multi level cross-tab result set?

columns could be layered by  : Manager and then Department and then
Employee...
And the rows would be : Work Area and then Project
With a sum (of) hours at the intersection...

This seems to entail, reading and creating a cursor for distinct columns,
and then process the distinct rows, for a given where clause...

But for the life of me, I can't figure out how to best code this...  Any
body out there have any ideas?

p.s., and here the clincher,  I need the columns to be dynamically read and
created from the data...

Thanks, tim

If you can help, I can work with RPGSQL or JAVA or Stored Procedures....
