Specifying basic properties
Crosstabs are implemented as grid reports, so you can specify the following
grid properties for a crosstab:
• When grid lines are displayed
• What is allowed when you run the report
❖ To specify the crosstab’s basic properties:
1 In the Properties view, select the General tab.
2 Specify basic crosstab properties.
Table 14-2 lists basic crosstab properties.
