You would need two repeaters (one for each side), each using a separate, filtered query to show just the desired information.  To get the repeaters alongside each other, you would need to place them inside a table with one row and two columns.  To get the items within the repeaters to show underneath each other, drop a block inside each repeater, then drop your items within the block.

Hi,

I think you misunderstood.  I didn't mention a 'Repeater Table'.  Put the repeaters in a 2x1 table.

HI,

    Yup i misunderstood your post a little bit but having confusion regarding two repeaters i have implemented as you told me but if the same query will use for both repeaters how will we make it clear that the no. of employees grouped by country name will mention some in first column and the remaining one in another column  ???
         i used property "Row Per Page" but it put the remaining data on the another page ??
        i mentioned the output in the first post report.. .. and yet the result is like in the attachment .

Thanks ,
Mohsin

i have also tried it using repeater table and used property "Across" and "Down"
but not did the acquire the required output .. .
   then how did i let the two repeater know for the same field is used in both repeater but they have to show the output in such a way that two countries show in one column and the other two countries will show in another column  ???

Thanks,
Mohsin
