SSRS Report - Display Single Data Row Vertically - reporting-services

I've built a report that is being passed simple Order data on a single row. For the "detail" fields from this row I would like to display them as follows:
Field1Name Field1Value
Field2Name Field2Value
etc...
For some reason, I'm having trouble getting this to work in SSRS. Every time I add one of the fields to my Table/Matrix controls, SSRS expands the control horizontally.
How would we display data from our single row so the field names are in Column 1 and the field values are in column 2?
Thank you

You cand do this if you change your query to use a PIVOT; then it will display correctly by default.

SSRS Hide columns based on Multi valued parameter

I have an SSRS report that has two parameters. A Description and Partner name. You can select more than one description or all of them but only one partner. When i select one or more descriptions report must only show columns that have values.
Issue is when i select all of them the report defaults to the structure of the first description regardless of the fact that when the 2nd or 3rd description row starts there is data in that column and it should be showing it. So it ends up hiding columns that should be showing
I have the below code in code visibility expression
=IIF(IsNothing(Fields!Working_Office.Value),True,False)
I suspect my issue has to do with the Multi valued parameter,

Produce Column of Calculated Values in List, nested in Tablix - SSRS Report Builder 2014

I'm trying to convert some old Crystal Reports files over to SSRS, and the layout calls for a section of dynamic rows inside an otherwise static tablix (table object).
In other words, the result should look like this:
Static Row
Dynamic Row 1
Dynamic Row 2
Dynamic Row 3
Static Row
Normally I would just drop a List into one of my table cells and arrange the data to be repeated. But the values to be shown in this list are all being calculated at run time -- the author of the report I'm trying to convert got very creative. Unfortunately, he's not available to ask about this stuff.
Anyway, this means I keep getting the error "The tablix has a detail member with inner members. Detail members can only contain static inner members." I know this means "no calculations in lists", but I'm out of alternatives. I can't split my report into separate tables, because the whole tablix equals one set of report output. I've tried adding additional groups to my tablix, but that doesn't group my dynamic output together. Instead each row of the dynamic row set gets treated as a separate report element, meaning I get multiple reports when I should only get one.
Does anyone have any ideas?

SSRS multi column list report how to create from one dataset

Hello I have a report which has multiple sections.
For each section I need the data to be displayed in a 2 column list.
So instead of the report having just one column and waste space on right, I require it to populate on the other column. I am currently using a list to populate the field from dataset I require however just get one long list.
See attachment for what I'm looking to achieve.

Add filter option on each column of the data displayed in SSRS

I am generating a table in SSRS based on the selection made by the user on two filters: Filter1 and Filter2 (say). The table so displayed has 10 columns and I wish to add filter option listing all available values for that column for all 10 columns.
Basically, I am trying to replicate the Excel functionality of filtering down data on each and every column.
Please note that I tried creating a new data set and a parameter taking all distinct values for a particular variable. However, I am still not able to get the desired results by filter the tablix on that parameter
Is there a way I can do that?
You'd need to make a new dataset that is a smaller version of your main dataset. It would need to return all potential values for the column(s) you want to filter in a single column to be used in a parameter.
Without seeing the design of the report or the dataset itself it's quite hard to be more specific.

SSRS - Why is my table duplicating rows?

I am creating a report in SSRS. I have a table showing the date and time the report was generated, it's a single column table with one expression =Now() and is not linked to any datasets.
The trouble I am having is that it returns 77 rows all with the exact same date. My main dataset returns 77 rows in a different table but that table is not linked to this one in any way.
How can I stop it from returning so many rows? The reason I'm using a table and not a text box is because I want it to have the same look and feel as other data presented in my report i.e. Header Row and Data Presented underneath. There are a few tables that use the same approach and all of them are returning duplicate rows. As you can see from the image below, I just need the first row from each table.
EDIT: Looks like SSRS automatically references a dataset when I insert a new table. When I change the table properties dataset to none it returns an error. Is there a way around this? I don't want data from any dataset, just want to use an simple expression =now()
As you've seen, a Tablix requires a DataSet, and when you only have one DataSet in a report it will link to this DataSet automatically in some circumstances.
You've mentioned you don't want to use Textboxes, but this does seem like the easiest option.
If you're set on using a Tablix for ease of formatting, to prevent any repeating rows just delete the Details group that gets set up by default when you create a Table through the designer:
This leaves a table with one header row only - you can add more header rows as required:
The result is a table that will only display the header rows once, i.e. no repeating rows.
You can add Summary data or individual fields from the DataSet to these header rows; if no aggregation is specified it will just take the first row by default.
