Hi,

I am having some trouble with a BIRT report. I need the column data to be displayed in a row wise like below.Each row should contain only two elements as below.

What I have is this.

Code:
ID Code
A ABC
A DEF
B FGH
B GHI


Code:
ID Code
A ABC DEF
B FGH GHI


Please help me out.

Thanks.

You should be able to group on id and then add an aggregation element to
the group header that uses the concatenate function. Finally hide the
detail row. Attached is an example.
