     Posted: 05 Oct 2009 at 9:59am
I've just started using crystal Reports and I am looking for help in designing a report for summerizing survey results. The database is an Access database. There is a numberic field that holds the response to each of the 10 questions. Each question askes the person taking the survey to rate their response on a 1 to 5 scale. The value they enter is stored in the database field for that question. So each survey is one records with 10 fields holding values 1 thru 5. I need a report that will show the number of responses for each of the 1 thru 5 values for each question. So the report will look like:
 
1. How well do you like our fried chicken: 1      2       3        4       5
                                                                 12% 10% 8%    10%  70%
 
2. How clean are the restrooms               22%  31%  19%  20% 18%
 
How do I get Crystal reports to generate a report like this?
 
thanks.

So each row of data in access has 11 columns (or more), a PK column and then 1 column per question?

Maybe try and use multiple crosstabs (one per question)

Insert a CT (on the report header or footer)
Column is the Qestion field (whichever youa re summarizing on this CT)
Summarized field will be the PK field set as a COUNT and shown as a percentage of the total for ther PK on a column.

Yea, pretty much. There is a id field that will need to be a group by to seperate survey groups. I would probably do a page break as well so each group of surveys that were returned would be summerized on one page. So say 10 surveys come in with the same ID field. They would be summerized together.
