Hi,
you may choose the following approach (in this case using rows):
data={"row1"->{1,2,3},"row2"->{4,5,6}};
selector={"row1","row2"};
selected=Prepend[#/.data,#]&/@selector;
selected
Transpose[selected]
{{row1,1,2,3},{row2,4,5,6}}
{{row1,row2},{1,4},{2,5},{3,6}}
which will display nicely with Grid.
This approach is quite convenient because you can define the selection
easily (and get the heading automatically), plus the data rows can be
supplied in any order. You can also use a Rule for each single entry,
but for large number of entries this will become ineffective.
Regards,
Yves
