Hi,
it can be done through SQL.
let's assume that the 'select ... from ...' statement results as below:
Count | CallType
----------------
21 | User Err
18 | UI Help
30 | Install
now, u put this statement in another as temporary table
select
user_err = min ( case when calltype = 'user err' then count else null
end ),
UI_Help = min ( case when calltype = 'UI_Help' then count else null
end ),
Install = min ( case when calltype = 'Install' then count else null
end )
from
(
select
...
from
...
) stm
it should result
User Err | UI Help | Install
----------------------------
21 | 18 | 30
