Convert rows into columns

Hello,
I have a problem formatting some data. What I have so far is a query that returns me two columns. One is the name of some "assets" and the other is a count of all the assets associated with that name.

eg servers 2
printers 25
CPU 700

What I need to do is convert the rows into columns. I want it to look like this:

servers printers CPU
2 25 700

Here is the simple query that gets me my results:

Select asset_cateogry, count(asset_category)
from tableName
group by asset_category


I would also like to add a date range for the count but that is not my main problem right now. I am really new to SQL so any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Cam

If you are wanting to do this from within sql server, you can't, but you can format the data anyway you want after you retrieve it from the database.
