    Post Transposing columns into new rows.

    Hello,

    I am running into some trouble trying to convert my data into a usable format. I have a site name in column A followed by IP addresses in columns afterwards ranging from 1 to hundreds of columns. I need this data to be transposed onto new rows instead of columns. I am having a hard time explaining my end goal but have attached a example of what I am trying to accomplish. any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Do the following: Save the workbook as a macro-enabled file. This will change its extension to "xlsm". Hold down the ALT key and press the F11 key. This will open the Visual Basic Editor. In the menu at the top click 'Insert' and then click 'Module'. Copy and paste the macro into the empty code window that opens up. Press the F5 key to run the macro. Close the code module window to return to your sheet. There are other quicker ways to run the macro such as assigning it to a button that you would click on your sheet or assigning it to a short cut key.

    Have a look here https://www.contextures.com/xlvba01.html
    The code needs to go in a regular module.

    Also with my code you will need to create a new sheet called Output

    Re: Transposing columns into new rows.

    You can do it with a few formulae, as the attached file demonstrates, using these formulae in the cells stated on the Desired sheet:

    A2: =COUNTA(Current!B2:Y2)

    B2: =A2+B1

    It is imporatant to put zero in cell B1. The first formula gives a count of the number of IP addresses in the Current sheet - you might need to change the Y to some other column, sufficient to cover the maximum number of IP addresses that you have. The second formula gives a cumulative count of the numbers.

    Copy these two formulae down until you start to get zeros in column A (this depends on how many entries you have in the Current sheet). Then put these formulae in the cells stated:

    D2: =IF(ROWS($1:1)>MAX(B:B),"-",MATCH(ROWS($1:1)-1,B:B)+1)

    E2: =IF(OR($D2="",$D2="-"),"",INDEX(Current!A:A,$D2))

    F2: =IF(OR($D2="",$D2="-"),"",INDEX(Current!B:Y,$D2,COUNTIF(D$2:D2,D2)))

    Again, you might need to change the Y parameter, as advised above. Copy these three formulae down until you start to get hyphens in column D.

    Hope this helps.

    Pete
