    Stacked report with multiple columns

    I have a stacked columnar report with detail that currently runs vertically (i.e., the labels are on the left with data detail in 1 column with the next section of the report starting below running vertically). I want the report to be stacked but want the data to run left to right or horizontally like a spreadsheet with labels in column A and data1 in column B, data2 in column C, etc. I am using a multi-select list box to select items from a query and that is what drives the report. I anticipate only being able to have 3 or 4 columns of data on a landscape view. Is this possible?

    Here is one way to do this http://www.datapigtechnologies.com/f.../crosstab.html

    How many data values are there?

    42 data values. I.e. there are 42 labels running top to bottom (which is what I want), however, I want the data to populate the report from left to right not continuing after the first set of 42.

    So you will have Data1 through Data42? Did you review that video?

    Not sure the crosstab query is what I need since I am not summing anything, just reporting. I have all the data for the report I need, I just want it arranged differently in the report. Basically I need to just reorganize the report I currently have, making the data values repeat as columns (left to right) and not continue downward from top to bottom.

    The video shows a method to 'rearrange' the data. It 'pivots' the data using expressions in the query grid. You can do this without having to do a Totals query.
