Ken: are you looking for pivot table functions? I thought you were describing something more akin to the Excel TRANSPOSE function. If you are looking for a pivot table library, ADO is a good abstraction library and has it built in. http://phplens.com/adodb/pivot.tables.html If you want to transpose a table, then look for 'php array transposing'. I don't know of a specific library, but you can find examples in stackoverflow, etc. On Thu, Dec 11, 2014 at 7:28 PM, Cary Gordon <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Of course, the easiest thing to do is search for “php pivot tables”.
