Regarding Pivot Tables
Pivot tables require data to be stored with rows as records.
If you need a different layout for display, perhaps you could start with the
source data in the proper orientation and use links or a pivot table to
generate a display view on another sheet.

When setting up the source data in a pivot table, is there a way to assign
rows as fields and columns as records? Excel automatically sets each row
of
the source data as a record with field names located in the top cells of
the
columns. I typically prefer this standard layout, but sometimes find it
useful to store and display source data with the columns as records.
