Hi,
I have 3 cross tabs in my report. my problem is based on user selection cross tabs should move back and forth. is it possiable.

thanks.

You can do this by using conditional block.
Since you have only 3 crosstabs, you can have all 3 in different order in each block and render one per user's choice.

You can have a conditional block with each block containing three crosstabs in different order.

For example, block variable 1 can have Fall08, Spring09 and Summer09;

block variable 2 can have Spring09, Summer09 and Fall08;

block variable 3 can have Summer09, Fall08 and Spring09 ; etc...


Now, you have to make the conditional variable that corresponds to user selection.

Also, how are users making the selection?
Do you have just one prompt or multiple prompts?

That depends upon how you are getting parameters from users when they select prompt.
