Hexagonal grid problem

Hi guys, I'm having a problem with the hexagonal grid on a cilinder. When i use all the available tools (hexagrid, lunchbox, etc) i always end with a grid in which the hexagon's vertex ends up on top, while the result i want is a honeycomb structure in which the hexagon's sides are parallel to the circle that generates the cilinder (think a beehive, in which the edges are the floor and ceiling).

i'll upload the files. The divisions seen there are the ones i need (18 division to the circumference of the cilinder and 2 in height.)
