    *** SOLVED *** convert row to column - this is easy - transpose -- BUT --

    situation:
    column headings = 1 to 120 (for 120 months)
    then a few rows down - calculating the interest per month (easy)
    but I want to table on sheet 2 to look like (eg):

    month interest
    1 11
    2 13
    3 15
    ... ...
    120 99

    this is EASY, BUT
    - it works the FIRST time (as the paste transpose copies a VALUE)

    BUT

    If I update some basic info on sheet 1, which CHANGES the CALCULATED interest
    the interest cells (shown in the table above) will NOT auto-update - I have to do it by hand - argh
    (ie recopy the row and repaste via transpose to get the new values

    so.... how can I make the column auto-update???

    THANKS!

    use VBA for that.

    Or use Power Query for that.

    If you post a excel file, I will show it to you in your file.

    If your data is in row 2, A:CZ (for example), you can use this formula in Sheet2
