I have several thousands of lines so copy paste is not an option plus nothing is regular. Here is an example:
ID # Per Room# 22222 1 F 223 22222 2 C 223 22222 3 E 208 22222 4 E 206 22222 5 B 216 22222 6 A 102 22222 7 E 122 42939 2 E126 43281 2 A102 46896 1 C 143 46896 2 D 224 46896 3 A 102 46896 4 D 215 46896 5 D 215 46896 6 D 215 46896 7 D 215 51126 1 C 101 51126 2 C 102 51126 3 D 224 51126 4 A 104 51126 5 D 229 I need to get information to look like: 22222 1 F223 2 C223 3 E208 4 E206 5 B216 6 A102 7 E122 42939 2 E126 43281 2 A102 46896 1 C143 2 D224 3 A102 4 D215 5 D215 6 D215 7 D215 51126 1 C101 2 C102 3 D224 4 A104 5 D229 Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have spent too many hours on this so far to no avail. |

To change your data from vertical to horizontal and visa versa... you will have to use the "paste special" option.
-Copy your data using Ctrl+C -Choose the cell where you want to paste your data -Go to the Edit Menu and choose "Paste Special" -In the paste special dialog box choose "All" and click the "Transpose" option...and then click ok. There you go, Bobs your uncle......your data has been transposed from vertical to horizontal.

I think you need to set up a pivot table here. Switching from rows to columns will not produce the example where the rows are changed to horizontal lines according to the first cell value and then the first cell value only appears once.
I am not yet sufficiently familiar with pivot tables to tell you how to set this up. |
