Question : SQL 2005 Pivot Query Help!

Can anyone help with this? I'm new to the pivot features on SQL 2005 queries -

SELECT            CONVERT(VARCHAR(7), DocData.DateCreated, 120) AS [Year/Month],
                  DocTypes.DocType AS [Document],
                  COUNT(DocData.JobId) AS Jobs
FROM            DocData INNER JOIN
                  DocTypes ON DocData.DocTypeId = DocTypes.DocTypeId
GROUP BY      CONVERT(VARCHAR(7), DocData.DateCreated, 120),
                  DocTypes.DocType

Trying to place the year/month in column 1, with Document accross the top row, with respective Job counts...

Thanks
