    Red face Data in 1 column and I need to get the data in multiple columns

    Hi there

    I hope you're well. I'm looking for some guidance on if this is possible and how I would do it if it is.

    Currently all my data is in 1 column with 28,000 rows.

    A2 : Field 1
    A3 : Field 2
    A4 : Field 3
    A5 : Field 4
    A6 : Field 5
    A7 : Field 6
    A8 : Field 7
    A9 : Field 8
    A10 : Field 9
    A11 : Field 10

    Then the data repeats.

    Is there any way as the data repeats in a set order I can make Rows A2:A11 become columns and then that repeated for each repetition?

    Thanks
    Kelly

    Are you still using Office 2016?

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook (yellow banner: HOW TO ATTACH YOUR SAMPLE WORKBOOK). Screenshots are of little practical use as we cannot manipulate them.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.
