Is there a way that if i use SHOW command, i get the display names of the series rather than the usual name, the same way as it show in charts.

Show gdp, should display the series with "Gross Domestic Product).

In case, if SPOOL is teh only option to achieve this, how do we show multiple series from spool for comparison,
like if i added, GDP, Crude, demand, supply... these four series in SPOOL, i don't want the tree structure display mode.

Can it be displayed like regular SHOW command, so i can compare the data of these series same as in spreadsheet

I don't follow what you want here.

The show command is used to display a view of an object.

You could use which would display the label view, that has the displayname as one of the entries?

I have series in my workfile as for example:
GDP, PP_PR_US, PP_PR_IN.
Using these names as they are handled in programs.

I have given them certain understandable displaynames as :
GDP : Gross Domestic Product
PP_PR_US : Price of UnitedStates
PP_PR_IN : Price of India.

Now what i want is, when i run the show command as :
show gdp PP_PR_us pp_pr_in
then in the result window, instead of getting these regular names on top of series, can i get the displaynames.

Attaching the screenshot.

No, the spreadsheet view of a group does not allow you to use displaynames instead of actual names.

You could write a quick add in that does it for you. Freeze the spreadsheet view of the group into a table, loop through the columns replacing the text in the first row with the displayname of the series instead of the actual name, and then displaying that table in the group.
