More than 1 records in one cell

Question

Hi all,
I once came across someone's apex site whereby they've a form and one column contains more than one record.
for e.g.
customer1 ordered prducts abc, xyz, def, etc
customer2 ordered one product xyz
The form:
Name  |Address |Product
      |        |def
      |        |---------------------
Cust1 |34289   |xyz
      |        |---------------------
      |        |abc
cust2 |43418   |xyz
-------------------------------------instead of
Name  |Address |Product
Cust1 |34289   |xyz
Cust1 |34289   |def
Cust1 |34289   |abc
cust2 |43418   |xyz
-------------------------------------If anyone have come across this, pls guide me.
Kind regards
Mel

Answer 1

ok, now its clear what exactly you need. In apex term it is called as Break Formatting for columns. Create a normal report
SELECT Name,Address ,product
FROM TABLE_TNow go to the Report attribute and make sure that the NAME and ADDRESS columns are the first and second column in the report. You can change the order of the column by using the up down arrow key on the right. Scroll down to the section "Break Formatting" and select "First and Second Columns" under the Breaks. In the "Identify how you would like your breaks to be displayed" select Default break Formating.

Thats all, you should be all set.
