Default Transpose not working rows to columns

Yes ... a consistent data source contributes immensely to everything
performing as planned.

Appreciate the feed-back.

Thank you, that worked very well. You do have to make sure all of the
rows
are consistent for each contact i.e. First Name, Middle Name, Last Name,
Suffix, Title, etc. When they are consistent, this formula works
perfectly.

Let's say that your 2 column datalist is on Sheet1, from A1 to Bn, and
you
want to create your newly configured list on Sheet2.

First, on Sheet1, select A1 to A13.
Right click in the selection and choose "Copy".

Navigate to Sheet2, and right click in A1, and choose "Paste Special".
Click on "Transpose", then <OK.

This will give you your column headers.

Now in A2 of Sheet2, enter this formula:

=INDEX(Sheet1!$B:$B,14*ROWS($1:1)+COLUMNS($A:A)-14)

Copy this formula across 14 columns to N2 (Column N will represent the
blank
row between contacts).

Then, copy the 14 column selection (A2 to N2) down as far as needed.

This should give you the type of display you're looking for.

I've tried using transpose but when I select the rows of data, Excel
put
all
of the data in the first two rows (what appears on the left of above
example
are all headings in the first row, what appears on the right of the
above
example all appear on the same row but they are different contacts that
should be on separate rows), it does give column headings but I want
row
A1
across to be the column headings from the rows, and rows B2 on down to
be
the
data.
Thanks for any help.
