1) have you read in WIKI VS PRO tutorial ?
    you know that you need db
    data sources
    may be named query?


2) I need ask Igor about such report.

You can try Report Wizard to play with
    I have see that reports have SUM, and GROUPs.


3) Who control in this report the number of columns?
    Jan, Feb, Mar ?

As I understand in GENERAL Case can be many months, right ?


4) do you know how such report can be produced in FileMaker or MS Access ?
