Default Break a table into discrete info

"Of course I've tried soapy water!!!"

Yeah, see, the list is changing daily, and needs to be updated daily, so I
was hoping for some suggestion a bit more automated?

Select A5:A235
Ctrl+C
EndDowndown (puts you at the bottom of your list)
Crtl+V
and repeat until you have 31 copies of the employee list...
Now sort the List into acsending order. This gets your list looking like

A5 Employee 1
A6 Employee 1,
........
A31 Employee 1,
A32 Employee 2 etc etc.
now insert a column in between A and B
Select all the data, including B4:AF4, Ctrl+C
Put your cursor in B5
AltEditSpecialTranspose
That gets all the data in place for Employee 1.

Copy Day 1 etc down 31 times, and then drag each column into place. Only 30
drag and drops to do unless you want to write a macro...

I have a table with

A5:A235 is a list of employees
B4:AF4 is days in a month
B5:AF235 is populated with hours worked over the month.

My client would like this in list form.

In other words,

Employee 1, Day 1, Hours
Employee 1, Day 2, Hours
.
.
.
Employee 1, Day 31, Hours
Employee 2, Day 1, Hours
Employee 2, Day 2, Hours
.
.
.
Employee N, Day 31, Hours


Explain how to please.
