Answer 1

Hi Prabath,
Alas, this is not simple, I have to challenge the solution road you choose.
Can't you work with a rotated table? So say the object normal table would be:
<object name>
1
2
3
4
5
the rotated table would read:
<object name> 1 2 3 4 5
So if you were to hide the header of this table and may be put a ";" after each object value,
you get almost the same.
Plus; it scales automatically based on the number values for the object.
Minus; it requires a fixed width, row by row autofith option doesn't exist for column by column...
Only other (complex) option:
Create a table with the object (first one).
Give the table a footer line.
Now in the footer use the following formula:
max(<object name>&previous(<object name>)&previous(previous(<object name>))&...)
Then you fold the table and show only the footer.
Now the downside here is that obviously you will have to know just how many occurrence of object name there are. So I really wouldn't recommend it unless there are really few values max.
Good luck,
