I am "getting external data" from an access table and when the records are returned, they fill down through rows. Is there a way that I can have the records fill across columns rather than down the rows?
 
You can copy the range, right click on a new cell, select
Paste Special, then check Transpose then click OK.

ie. if your data is in column A, select all data and copy,
select B1, rightclick, paste special, check transpose,OK.
the data will be spread B1:Bn. (remember you only have
256 columns total in Excel)

Yeah I thought about doing that but I was hoping I could avoid it. There's no way to have the data inserted across columns straight away?
