Hi kavitha,

i think it is not possible by using table, try by using template.

hi,

Create a template with required width. Give the height of the template the same as the table height.Create cells based on the headings required.

Now create table by giving the left margin equal to the thickness of the template.

its a little tricky task

but its possible

there is no need to use header

do all the below steps in main area of table

first you have to decide how many rows you want to view in the table

since its an horizontal view of table i think 5 rows would be enough

make a line type with 6 columns

in the main area create as many table line as no of filed in table

in the first block of each table line add a text with static data ie the name of the field you want to display

in the rest of the 5 blocks of table line just add a loop in which you have to read first 5 rows of internal table into a local internal table for each field of the table of the type similar to filed of the tabel desired and add a dynamic text ie the value of the the filed from local internal table of the filed

Yes of course

what would have you done if you used in horizontal pattern

wouldnt you had used 21 blocks in a table line

its just like you have rotated the table ANGLE 90 DEGREE

now your header has become a talbe line

now is it easy to imagine the picture......:)
