Well - if you always have 12 columns, you could also write a loop to transfer the data to a temporary table, and then use a regular report. The problem you might encounter is a variable number of columns. This is easier with Excel automation, but you might also include the maximum number of columns foreseen, and use conditional printing.

HTH, Hilmar.
