    Hi,

    You can check this

    To flip columns into rows :
    Code:
    public static DataTable FlipDataTable(DataTable dt)
    {
                DataTable table = new DataTable();
                //Get all the rows and change into columns
                for (int i = 0; i <= dt.Rows.Count; i++)
                {
                         table.Columns.Add(Convert.ToString(i));
                }
               DataRow dr;
               //get all the columns and make it as rows
               for (int j = 0; j < dt.Columns.Count; j++)
               {
                        dr = table.NewRow();
                        dr[0] = dt.Columns[j].ToString();
                        for (int k = 1; k <= dt.Rows.Count; k++)
                                     dr[k] = dt.Rows[k - 1][j];
                        table.Rows.Add(dr);
               }
               return table;
    }
    Now to bind the original DataTable to a GridView gvColumnsAsColumns and the flipped DataTable to gvColumnsAsRows, add the following code in the page_load event
    Code:
    //Bind datatable with columns as columns
      gvColumnsAsColumns.DataSource = dt;
      gvColumnsAsColumns.DataBind();
    //Bind datatable with columns as rows
      gvColumnsAsRows.DataSource = FlipDataTable(dt);
      gvColumnsAsRows.DataBind();
      gvColumnsAsRows.HeaderRow.Visible = false;

    Thanks
