Well - instead of trying to get all the row values in single cell (it can look messy .. and un categorized)...

i will recommend - u write a code to skip the parent (project) column to print it again and again for same value ..

How u can do - do a column callback - add a variable in memory keeping a track of last project name being set. If the current one is same - just ignore - show blank .. else show the project name.. and so on - so forth..

 

u a programmer - u know it better :)..

 

this way u can avoid the extra printing and get desired output.

Writing all values in single rows is a bit tricky code - it may need u to write in yr own model and so on so forth -- plus it might cause some trouble with pagination too.. hence .. the appproach shared above is etter then what you looking for.

 

Happy GCing :)

Sorry... but i cannot change it .. bcoz the design was fixed by client so we can't change it... I have to deliver the project as it was designed... Thats why i am asking.. anyway thanks  :) ...

well.. then there is another option for you... a simpler one

 

get distinct rows by parent field and make a callback on the child field where u can query up the data to be displayed. There u can return a CSV value!! 

 

Happy GCing :)
