The OVER command may be what you want, but an example would be useful.

Not sure I understand.

You want the report to be:

Col1 X X X X X X
Col2 X X X X X X
Col3 X X X X X X

?

I think WF DEV means this:



I don't know how to do that in PDF. I think I've seen some workarounds in this forum to have something like that in HTML/Excel by using some particular combination of CSS keywords but I don't think that is transferable to PDF.

njsden You are correct . It is exactly what I meant. I saw a few posts how to rotate column title, but I did not see anything as far as data rotation concerns.

The chances of doing data rotation in PDF is virtually zero, the column title rotate works on known values, and is a bit lengthy in its implementation.

To do the same with data would take for ever.

The issue is that to rotate the data, the actual layout of the report would have to change, as the hieght of the rows would have to change, and then perhaps extra pages would need to be added.

TABLE FILE CAR
  SUM 
    DEALER_COST
  BY COUNTRY
  BY CAR
  ON TABLE HOLD AS HLDRPRT1 FORMAT HTMTABLE
  ON TABLE SET STYLE *
  TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=DEALER_COST, CLASS=rotate1 ,$
  ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN

-HTMLFORM BEGIN
<html>
<style>
.rotate1 {
    color:red;
    writing-mode: tb-rl;
    filter: flipv fliph;
}
</style>
<body>
!IBI.FIL.HLDRPRT1;
</body>
</html>

-HTMLFORM END

Doing it in a browser/Excel is the easy place to do it.
