You can just use two dataSets and then use the headers dataSet to replace the text in the header labels in your table. As for how you want it to display, can you show a more detailed diagram? Thanks.

So, the headers text file will have just one column, but the headervalues text file will have a variable numbers of columns? How are you handling the variable number of columns, currently?

Can you answer the questions from my last post? Are there a dynamic number of columns in the "headervalues" text file? Or is it a fixed number? If variable, do you have a solution to bringing the values into a dataSet, yet? Please let me know! Also, let me know your BIRT version.
