    Excel - change orientation

    I have data in an excel spread sheet that I want to import into a database. However the information is written on it's side (as such) e.g. My field names are going down Column A instead of going across Row1.

    So I want this:

    -----------------------------------------
    Name | Ann | Mary | Barry | Tom |
    -----------------------------------------
    Age | 33 | 44 | 25 | 16 |
    -----------------------------------------
    Gender | F | F | M | M |
    -----------------------------------------

    to become this:

    | Name | Age | Gender |
    | .Ann.. | ..33. | F |
    | .Mary | ..44. | F |
    | .Barry | ..25. | M |
    | .Tom. | ..16. | M |

    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Copy the table, and select an empty cell, right click your mouse > paste special > select transpose.
