    Transposing data from single column to multiple columns.

    Morning/Afternoon all,

    New to the Offset function and unsure whether it is the right one to use but am trying to change a long list of metadata (80,000+) to show in Columns instead of Rows. An example of the text I am trying to re-arrange is below:-

    I know I could use Transpose but would have to do this one by one. I have 7 rows that I wish to change to coloumns for 10k+ people. Any ideas how I could go about this?

    Cheers guys,

    Craig.

    Re: Offset? Help!

    Assuming you have that column in Column A, starting at A1...

    Try in another column, first row...

    =INDEX($A$1:$A$1000,7*(ROWS($A$1:$A1)-1)+1)

    copied across 7 columns...

    then replace the first $A$1 with $A$2 in the second column, then to $A$3 in the third column, etc...

    Then copy all 7 columns down...
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
