Dear Experts

Does anybody know a Grid Component which supports displaying a table "horizontal"?
It seems I’m not able to find the right keywords to google for this.

Thank you in advance
Bruno

[edit from="Bruno"]
What I want is a Grid control which will transpose the rows and columns of its data source, such that the columns are displayed where the rows would normally be, and the rows where the columns would normally be, something like:

Column1    Row1    Row2    Row3 ...
Column2    Row1    Row2    Row3 ...
Column3    Row1    Row2    Row3 ...
Column4    Row1    Row2    Row3 ...
...

What's wrong with DataGridView?

Do you mean it is possible to do it with DataGridView? The thing I'm looking for is to "transpose" the display....means Table Columns are the rows and records should be displayed as columns.
Sorry for my bad English. Thank you for responding.

Sorry, your original question was not clear. I don't know of any way that a normal DGV or associated controls can do that.

Can you help me to better formulate my question?
Thank you

It seems that something "like this" does not exists. A little bit strange, because it is a "simple" thing this transposing. I think I will invent the "transpose pattern" :-)

Thank you very much for your help for a noob.

Bruno, DataGridView is DataGridView and displays data as you provided them.
All you need to do is to transpose (pivot) data ;)

I think, you need to provide more details about the data source to be able to help you.

Thank you Maciej
I'm looking more for a Grid with a property "Vertical/Horizontal - Display". I don't like to make the DB- query depended how results need to be displayed.
Therefore I can't accept your answer but a 5 for bother at this.

Thank you, Bruno ;)
I think, that vertical/horizontal dispaly property does not exists. You need to implement it. Why? There is no mechanism which automatically can convert rows to columns. Such of this conversion is data dependant.

I found this: Vertical Grid - DevExpress

I am ashamed. Used DevExpress since several versions and did not recognized this...I need to check. Accepted.
Thank you, Bruno

You're very welcome, Bruno ;)
