sql server (alternate): Hi,

Am using robvolks crosstab-procedure to generate a crosstab query.

I get this result:
Total A B C
juli 455 1 107 347
okt 83 1 9 73
aug 612 1 113 498
juni 451 1 108 342

So I get a total for each month. But I would also like a total of each
letter
Total A B C
juli 455 1 107 347
okt 83 1 9 73
aug 612 1 113 498
juni 451 1 108 342
Total 1601 4 337 1260

Is that possible?

---call to procedure
execute crosstab 'select DATENAME(month,(theDate)) as '' '', count(*) as
'MonthsTotal'' from tblData group by
DATENAME(month,(theDate))','count(letter)','letter','tblData'

-----------Robvolks procedure----
CREATE PROCEDURE crosstab
@select varchar(8000),
@sumfunc varchar(100),
@pivot varchar(100),
@table varchar(100),
@where varchar(1000)='1=1'

AS

DECLARE @sql varchar(8000), @delim varchar(1)
SET NOCOUNT ON

EXEC ('SELECT ' + @pivot + ' AS pivot INTO ##pivot FROM ' + @table + ' WHERE
1=2')
EXEC ('INSERT INTO ##pivot SELECT DISTINCT ' + @pivot + ' FROM ' + @table +
' WHERE '
+ @where + ' AND ' + @pivot + ' Is Not Null')

SELECT @sql='', @sumfunc=stuff(@sumfunc, len(@sumfunc), 1, ' END)' )

SELECT @delim=CASE Sign( CharIndex('char', data_type)+CharIndex('date',
data_type) )
WHEN 0 THEN '' ELSE '''' END
FROM tempdb.information_schema.columns
WHERE table_name='##pivot' AND column_name='pivot'

SELECT @sql=@sql + '''' + convert(varchar(100), pivot) + ''' = ' +
stuff(@sumfunc,charindex( '(', @sumfunc )+1, 0, ' CASE ' + @pivot + ' WHEN '
+ @delim + convert(varchar(100), pivot) + @delim + ' THEN ' ) + ', ' FROM
##pivot

DROP TABLE ##pivot

SELECT @sql=left(@sql, len(@sql)-1)
SELECT @select=stuff(@select, charindex(' FROM ', @select)+1, 0, ', ' + @sql
+ ' ')

EXEC (@select)
SET ANSI_WARNINGS ON
GO

You would use INSERT EXEC to capture the result from the crosstab
procedure into a temp table, and then compute a total row from the
data in it.

SELECT month_name,
COUNT(*) AS tot,
SUM(CASE WHEN foo = 'A' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS tot_a,
SUM(CASE WHEN foo = 'B' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS tot_b,
SUM(CASE WHEN foo = 'C THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS tot_c
FROM Foobar
GROUP BY month_name
UNION ALL
SELECT 'All months',
COUNT(*) AS tot
SUM(CASE WHEN foo = 'A' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS tot_a,
SUM(CASE WHEN foo = 'B' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS tot_b,
SUM(CASE WHEN foo = 'C THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS tot_c
FROM Foobar;

But why not use a report writer in the front end, like you are supposed
to?

So I don't have to hardcode my A, B and C's ?
Because I am using Visual Studio .NET and that leaves me with Crystal
Reports (yuckk, hark, spit) as a reporting tool.

I think I will try Erlands suggestion.
