Does it mean that, if it was a report based on Scott's "dept" table, once it looks likeDEPTNO DNAME LOC and another time asLOC DNAME DEPTNO Or, would you like to change the way information is read (for example, we (in Croatia) write and read from left to right (LTR) (the way we use on this Forum), while people who use Arab or Hebrew write and read from right to left (RTL))?
If it is the first scenario, I'm afraid that there's no easy way to do that (at least, I don't know it). You have to create report layout during development time (i.e. not run time). However, if it is such a simple "dept" example, you'd create two layouts, one overlaping the other, and create Format Triggers which would return TRUE or FALSE, depending on LTR or RTL flag set before running the report. If a field is set to FALSE, it is not displayed.
Of course, if there are many fields, it will certainly become awfully complicated and you'd rather create two different reports.
If, on the other hand, you'd like to use RTL language, I can't help you about it - I've never had to do something like that. You could, however, search for "Arab" or "right to left" here or in Arabic forum.
