Crosstab issue : Error when query has a UNION

smuks

I am facing a strange situation with the crosstab in BIRT. When the query I use to build the cube is a simple one then everything is fine. But when the query has a UNION in it, I get the error pasted below when I run my report.

The structure of my query is :

select a , b , max(c) from
(select a, b , cfrom table 1
UNION
select a,b ,c from table 2) z
group by a,b

Any help will be much appreciated!!!

Hi smuks,

Do you think you could recreate this issue with the sample database? This way I can run it and try to see exactly what's happening? Thanks!
