access crosstab queries month range

[tonyrulesyall]

I am working on putting together crosstab pivot queries by month.

It always goes by calendar month order:
Jan, Feb, Mar, etc.

How do I set up the columns so they are in sequential order I want,
with the year, ex:

Dec 07, Jan 08, Feb 08, etc.

You have two choices, neither get you exactly what you want.
PIVOT Format([YourDateField, "mmm yy") IN("Dec 07", "Jan 08", "Feb 08",
etc. );
AND update it every month.

OR
PIVOT Format([YourDateField, "yy mm mmm");
