Default How do I change columns going from left to right to rows going up.

I have a large worksheet with over 200 columns that I want to change the
orientation so that the column headings are rows. For example: B1 becomes
A2; C1 becomes A3, etc. Can anyone help?

You can use a help sheet and just copy the data, select A2 in the new sheet
and do editpaste special and select transpose

note that if you have more than 256 rows in any of the columns (b1, ci etc)
than it won't work since excel has only 256 columns

Steve,

Copy the data, find another place (even if temporary, you can't use the same
place), Paste Special - Transpose.
