Being new to BIRT, I need to ask what will probably be a fairly basic question. I have been asked to create a report where the data of one bound field reads from left to right (horizontally) instead of vertically. This field is the months of the year. Below that are two results of a SUM. The report should look like:
Jan Feb Mar Apr May
25 30 26 2 32
16 1 14 33 24
I created a list and inserted a Grid in the detail line of the list. On the outline tab, I selected the Grid and went to "Properties", and changed the "Display" from "Block" to "InLine". However, this did not force the data to display left to right, instead maintaining a vertical stack. I also changed the "Display" on each of the rows of the grid.
Any thoughts or tricks would be highly appreciated. Thanks so much in advance.

Take a look at the attached report. I created a data cube in the data explorer, use the fields from the cube in a crosstab in the layout, selected the crosstab and changed the orientation to vertical in the property editor, and mapped the short string month values to replace the integer months. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have questions.
You could also possibly use lists to get this working, if this doesn't work for you.
