Hi divya,

As per my knowledge its not like creating a single attribute with multiple values but it is like the label is there only for one inputfield and the other input fields are attributes wihout header. but on screen it appears as if all the fields have same lable.

If you take the attribute 'Phone/Extension' in the BP Account detials view under Main Address and Communication Data

the text 'Phone/Extension' is the label for attribute STRUCT.COUNTRYTEL alone.

in web ui it appears as Phone/Extension: Countrytelphone,telephone number, extension.

If this is not what you are looking pls elaborate with some other example as the field 'Nationality' is a single finput field.

Your context node shall contain all these fields like country,city,etc as different attributes.so in your view configuration,add all these fields whatever you require from the AVAILABLE FIELDS section to the DISPLAYED FIELDS section.NOw all these attributes would be added in diff rows.What you need to do is,select the first attribute,lets say COUNTRY,click on this attribute and then on the buttn SHOW FIELD PROPERTIES.Thsi will show you the label name etc.Here you change the label name to NATIONALITY.Also ,it will show you the row no,cloumn span of the field and column span of the label.You need to reduce the column span of the field value.Ie if the column span is from D TO H,reduce it from D TO F.Now goto the next attribute eg CITY and in the same way,goto the attribute properties.Here ,There is a check box SHOW LABEL,uncheck this,and now goto the row no and the cloumn span.Make the row no same as that of the COUNTRY FIELD.The column span should howevrbe statring from where the column span of country field ended.Ie Teh column apsn of counrty field ended at F .So for CITY,the column span should start from G to amybe H.Now this is how you need to accomodate the other fields also in the same row,by changing the row no and column span in the field properties.
