    Converting column data to row data macro

    There is a Macro for MS Excel out there that can take data in a column, and as long as there is an empty cell between the "records" it will take that column and post the data in row format. See example below.

    The context of my problem is that I am scanning-in contact data from a paper directory. I am using MS Office Document Scanning Add-on which saves it as text directly to MS Word. Unfortunantly, it outputs to a column.

    I need that data formated for standardized CSV database formats into a row.
    I dont mind pasting this into Excel and adding an empty row in between column "records" so that when the macro is applied each "6 fields" get applied to a seperate row.

    I know the macro exists, I just cant find in on the web anymore.



    The Output I have is this:

    Name
    Address
    City
    Zip
    Email

    Name
    Address
    City
    Zip
    Email

    I want is this:

    Name, Address, City, Zip, Email
    Name, Address, City, Zip, Email

    Thanks!

    You could use the Transpose function in copy-paste, or the array function Transpose...
