How can I replicate the columns in a table?

I am creating a table of child records and I only need the record name field. To align with the customer's template, the child record numbers should align horizontally and not vertically. I understand that there is a way to replicate the columns in a table, but can't find any documentation that shows how to do this?

@timandrews  take a look at this and see if it helps. Also can you share a screenshot of what you are outputting and what you think it should look like?

@eharris04 thanks for te reply. I've attached a copy of the document I am working on. The article you shared I have seen and does not help in this situation. I had spoken to support a couple of weeks ago and was told that there is a way to replicate columns in a table, so that child record information is displayed horizontally instead of vertically in a table.

 

Right now, the child related records show up in a table with vertical entries:

Criminal Case Number(s):

P vs. CA Test Case 395

P vs. CA Test Case 318

P vs. CA Test Case 316

 

I want the child Criminal Case Numbers to appear as: 

"Criminal Case Number(s): P vs. CA Test Case 395, P vs. CA Test Case 318, P vs. CA Test Case 316..."

 

I'm trying to determine how to have my table display the field I need to place into the table horizontally and not vertically.

Hi Tim,

 

In your scenario, I would recommend using Excel as Middleware to reformat the row replication into a comma delimited list. I've included a sample of what that could look like. Here's also the documentation for Excel as Middleware:
