Oops!

Told Jimi to send book to me via email.

Did not see(BAAB) your reply and explanation.

Second time through with yours should get him sorted, but I will set up his
book if he sends it.

Did you get the =offset() formula to work ok in C1:L1?
(It worked fine for me.)

Then I followed Gord's instruction to copy it down the rows until I got a bunch
of 0's.

Then I selected columns C:L
edit|copy
edit|paste special|Values

Then I inserted a new row 1
Then I selected A2:A11
edit|copy
then I selected C1
edit|paste special|check Transpose

If all that works fine (and it did for me), then I deleted columns A:B and saved
it as a new name.

I bet it was just a minor mistake--try it again. If it doesn't work, keep track
of what you did and where it went wrong and post back with your results.

But I bet you'll be sending a "thank you" to Gord!

many thanks for your time and effort in responding to my query. I;m not that
great in excel and although your reply is 100% correct i cannot get it to
work. maybe i am using an olser version of ecxcel as it doesn't give me the
option to transpose certain labels - only a tick box! can i e-mail you my
spreadsheet and you can talk me through it, or alternatively post a reply as
if you were advising an absolute computer 1st timer in order that i will
understand!!

Once again i thank you for your assistance

On a copy of the worksheet..........................

Assuming name is cell B1 enter in C1 and drag across to L1 and down until you
get zeros.

=OFFSET($B$1,(ROW()-1)*10+COLUMN()-3,0)

When happy,select Columns C:L then copypaste special(in place)valuesOK

Insert a row at row 1 then copypaste specialtranspose the headers in A1:A10
to C1:L1

Delete columns A and B.
