Jim,

Put this in A31, and copy down.

=OFFSET(A31,-(INT((ROW()-1)/30))*30,INT((ROW()-1)/30),1,1)

Empty cells will give you zero. You can then convert the formulas to hard
data: Copy the entire column, then paste it over itself with Edit - Paste
special - Values. Now you don't need the stuff in columns B, C, etc.

I have data in 50 columns and 30 rows.
I would like to know how to either copy or move the data in the next
columns
to the next row of the previous column without using "copy and paste"
because
there are too many columns and I think there is a better way to do this.

What I mean is that I want to have only one column combining all data from
50 different columns into one column.

So it looks like this after moving or copying the data from columns into
one
column.

column A
------------
A1
...
A30
B1 ( data in the column B is now in the next row in the column A at the
31st
row)
...
B30
.....
...
AX1 ( data in the column AX is now in the next row in the column A at the
1471st row)

...
Ax30



Thank you
Jim
