    Rearranging row data into column headers for large file

    Hi everyone -

    Currently stumped on an Excel problem. I have a spreadsheet with a lot of data - over 4000 rows - and this is how it is structured:

    Category 1
    Store 1
    Metric 1
    Metric 2
    Metric 3
    Store 2
    Metric 1
    Metric 2
    Metric 3
    Store 3
    Metric 1
    Metric 2
    Metric 3
    Category 2
    ...
    And it goes on for another few thousand rows

    Instead I would like to get "Metrics" as column headers - this should save a considerable amount of space. For example, like below:

    Metric 1 Metric 2 Metric 3
    Category 1
    Store 1
    Store 2
    Store 3
    ...


    How would you guys suggest the easiest way to do this would be (other than manually copying and pasting values )
