Displaying data in Columns based on Criteria

I have data in rows that I want to display in columns based on a value in
each row.
Here's an example of the data:
Employee ID Type Code Amount
123 PAY BONUS 1,000
123 PAY SALARY 5,000
123 DED INS 500
123 DED DENTAL 100
123 DED FLEX 50
Here's how I'd like to display the data:
EMPLOYEE CODE AMOUNT CODE AMOUNT
123 BONUS 1,000 INS 500
123 SALARY 5,000 DENTAL 100
123 FLEX 50
My problem is understanding how to display the items in each column starting
at the top.
Thanks for any help.

The best way to produce this type of layout is to create a matrix
report where your pivot column (the column that gets split into
multiple columns based on distinct values) is Type. Hope this helps.

Allen has asked for:
How can I add another column that shows the difference between first CODE
column value and second CODE column value?
Thanks in advance!
