  hi, i'm trying to get a grid to group data horizontally.

   

  ie:

   col1 col2 col3

  1       x     y

  1      a     c

  2      a     b

   

  to be:

   

  1  x   y

     a    c

  2  a    b

   

  I've tried using the gridviewhelper class which is great but alas i have buttons which i bind id's to (and then pass these through as commandarguements to another page).

  The first row's button after the group header loses its arguement - thus ruining the page.

   

  Anyone know any fancy workaround or possible causes?

  thanks!

  Hi,

  When i need to produce output like that, i tend to use grouping sets in oracle to format the SQL output to look like that.

  I am not sure if grouping sets are a standard feature of SQL, but it might be worth looking into
