Forgive me if this is an easy question, but I'm very new to webfocus.

How do I change the display output of a report from horizontal to vertical? Here's what I mean:

I have a table that has 40 columns in it. Let's call them c1 through c40. So, my fex looks like this:

TABLE FILE FILE1
PRINT
   C1
   C2
   C3
   .
   .
   .
   C40
WHERE C1 EQ '&SOMEVALUE'
END


When the report is run, it comes out like so:

C1     C2    C3   ...   C40
V1     V2    V3   ...   V40


How can I make the report come out like this:

C1   V1
C2   V2
C3   V3
.
.
.
C40  V40


Thanks for any help!

Try the OVER command:

TABLE FILE FILE1
PRINT
C1 AS '' V1 AS ''
OVER
C2 AS '' V2 AS ''
...

Unfortunately, OVER plays havoc with your column titles (remove the AS '' to see what I mean), so you will have to put them in the HEADING, which opens up a can of worms, alignment wise.

I don't want to scare you, but these are the facts. I hope someone else has a better idea.
