    Sorry to butt in, but those are outstanding solutions! What if, however, you also want the OBS1, OBS2 etc. headings in another column. How would you do this? I run into this all the time with data from external sources, I need to 'normalize' a pivottable and put the horizontal headings into the data itself.

    Forgive me if this question breaks forum protocol as i'm not the OP.
