I assume that your first example has the variable names as the first row. What variable names do want for your result table? Your example does not show any.

What names do you want for the variables in your output dataset? Or do you just want a report? If a report what format do you want the report, PDF, RTF, Excel sheet, text file?

Those are not "column names". They are the names of the variables that hold the data. Variables have to have names. NameHead is not the column header, it is the value of the first column and the first row. You can make a report that doesn't include the variable names if you want.
