hi,
i have a table in database which has a structure like

cols ---> A B C D WK QTY
rows
1 a1 b1 c1 d1 wk1 10
2 a2 b2 c2 d2 wk2 10 ...

now
i want the data to appear as like this

cols ---> A B C D WK1
rows
1 a1 b1 c1 d1 10

after i execute a 'select' statement on the table where my condition is
col D = d1.
the output should give wk1 (which is the corresponding data for the above where condition) as the col. heading and the respective qty should go as the data for this 'new column' (which is to come dynamically, as is not present in the database.

can anybody think of a solution for this problem.

yeah but what if the column wk increases dynamically??
I mean more records are added to the table with new wk values???

The dynamic cross tab procedure can handle quite a few pivoted columns. You should be able to handle about 50 pivoted week columns with the original version, and if you read the comments section of the article you'll find a few solutions that increase that number.
