using crystal developer xi, when you view the report in crystal it looks fine but the vertical headers display horizontally when viewed through the web. The web view seems to lose the formatting.

Has anyone seen this before?

It's a limitation of HTML - there is no standard way to display vertical text. There's css element that's supported in Internet Explorer, and you can associate fields with a style sheet, but it won't give very good-looking results. Workaround is to use a thick-client viewer like ActiveX or Java viewers.Sincerely,Ted Ueda
