I would like to make a layout with each record displaying in a column, and the field names displaying to the left, as in the example below, where "||" separates the field name (which should only display once on the left side) from the fields, and "|" separates each record:

Record number||123|456|789|

Time||2.5|3.5|7|

Date||10/12|2/3|6/7|

Of course in the layout I would want each record's fields lined up neatly, which can't be done here.

I could do this in about 2 minutes on a spreadsheet, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it in Filemaker!

Can anyone help me or tell me if Filemaker has that capability? Thank you!

Hey!

Look at his thread, maybe it has what you're looking for

I don't think there is an easy way of doing this....

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately I don't have 7 yet, and the thread you recommended was for 7. Luckily, I just made a regular portal field, reorienting the suggested layout the client had provided me, and he actually liked it better.

Sorry I didn't look up what version you had....

Glad to hear that it worked out anyway
