Display data in datagrid horizontally instead of vertically Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hi all.

Currently we have a data grid that displays like this:

YEAR-------SALES
2005--------50.00
2006--------70.00
2007--------80.00

Is there a way to display like this:

YEAR--2005-----2006-----2007
SALES-50.00----70.00----80.00

Thank you in advance!

There are a few approaches to doing this.

1) Create a new recordset with the appropriate fields and populate as needed from the vertical data, then bind that to the grid.
2) Rotate the data using queries. Here is something that will help with that: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/175574 This becomes even easier if you're on SQL2005 where you can do PIVOT queries (PIVOT would likely be rejected by the SLX Provider so you'd need to wrap that in a view).
