Period 1 and Period 2 will probably be Quarters (like 1st Qtr 2007 vs. 1st Qtr 2008) but I need to be able to define those quarters on the fly and not display every quarter of history.

 

I've got a cross-tab that displays what I need for 1 period but I can't get the 2nd period or change.

 

And, I know it's not specifically covered in this forum, but I have v8.5

 

To make them appear as one cross-tab requires creative hiding of the borders and lining them up carefully. You will probably have to have the first one overlapping the second one a bit and then hide the lines so that you can't tell that it's two cross-tabs. It's tricky and I'm not sure that it can be done just the way you want, but it has a good shot of working.
