Thank you for your help, Jim, it pointed me in the right direction, I was
able to find a couple of excellent sample databases at
http://www.invisibleinc.com/download.cfm?filFilID=6

They are called CrosstabReport.mdb and Calendar.mdb.  Especially the
Calendar.mdb 'Crew Rotation Schedule' is exactly what I was looking for.  I
need to make some adjustments to the idea to format it for weeks instead of
months, but I'm well on my way, thank you.

Cathy--

I've done this for quite a number of projects. Basically, it's required
using a crosstab query as the report source. I tried at first to use
Microsoft Graph to represent the data, but found I had better luck and an
easier time simply programatically adding and/or formatting report objects
(labels and text boxes) on the fly, using each report section's OnFormat
event handler. I wish I had a really easy example to show you, but none of
them were really easy. ;-) They have definitely been the most challenging
reports (and forms) I've created.

Good luck, and let me know if I can help you further.
