Default column wrapping

is it possible in office 2003 - excel to wrap the columns?

explanation:
i have a spreadsheet that has over 1000 rows in one column... i want to be
able to create a break (per se) every 150 (for instance) rows and create a
new column. (headers arent necessary in this.)

Any comments/questions are welcomed.

Default column wrapping

With a macro.

Public Sub SplitToCols()
Dim NUMCOLS As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim colsize As Long
On Error GoTo fileerror

NUMCOLS = InputBox("Choose Final Number of Columns")
colsize = Int((ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count + _
(NUMCOLS - 1)) / NUMCOLS)
For i = 2 To NUMCOLS
Cells((i - 1) * colsize + 1, 1).Resize(colsize, 1).Copy Cells(1, i)
Next i
Range(Cells(colsize + 1, 1), Cells(Rows.Count, 1)).Clear
fileerror:
End Sub
