    copied!<p>I have the same requirement to rotate a Grid as I'm replicating the QueryWizard in ASP.NET and the data is more manageable flipped on its side.</p> <p>My prototype consisted of a Repeater that dumped the row out vertical rows, but formatting is a bit messy if you have unpredictable data lengths as the tables need to have set line-height, width and an overflow:hidden to appear uniformed. - but I guess a simple nobr would suffice. </p> <pre><code>&lt;HeaderTemplate&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;ColumnName1&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;td&gt;ColumnName2&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/HeaderTemplate&gt; &lt;ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;%# Eval("Column1") %&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;%# Eval("Column2") %&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;FooterTemplate&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/FooterTemplate&gt; </code></pre> <p>My plan of attack for Monday was to override the GridView render method and then loop the Rows to have them render as required. I will post back to let you know my progress</p> <p>Pseudocode - something like</p> <pre><code>for(int c=0; c &lt; columns.Count; c++) { writer.Write("&lt;tr&gt;"); writer.Write("&lt;td&gt;" + columns[c].Title + "&lt;/td&gt;"); for(int r=0; r &lt; rows.Count; r++) { rows[r].Cells[c].render(writer); } writer.Write("&lt;/tr&gt;"); } </code></pre> <p>By letting the Cell handle the rendering you shouldn't need to do anything different with Binding or the ViewState.</p>
 

Querying!

An individual column

Larger individual text columns get their own page to allow for proper reading.
