If you are using SQL Server 2005, you can try the PIVOT keyword.

E 12°55'05.63"
N 56°04'39.26"

Example:

Current

Item Date Quantity
12 12/06/2009 200
13 13/07/2009 150

We want:

Item 12/06/2009 13/07/2009
12 200
13 150

We want SQL to pick up the headings of the dates automatically from the normalized data.

Thanks

...Item 12 Quantity of 200 under the respective Date (12/06/2009) and Item 13 quantity 150 under it's respective date (13/07/2009)
