You can do it with conditionals. Circa:
select errordescription, sum (case when rundate = '2007-06-22'::date
then number else 0 end) as "06/22", sum(case when rundate =
'2007-06-23'::date then number else 0 end) as "06/23" ... group by
errordescription order by errordescription;
and you can use a VIEW and change the fix conditions to expressions with
current_date.
