Default Distribute two columns evenly over several columns

I have two columns that are related, name and score, that run from A2:B335.
I would like to keep these columns together and have them distributed evenly
over multiple columns. For example to have these two columns distributed
across 10 columns for 67 rows.

This is primarily for formatting and printing reasons.

Thank you.

I like to copy the data into MSWord and use MSWord's builtin ability to do
column layout.

If that doesn't work for you, David McRitchie has a macro that will "snake" the
columns.

If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at:

The suggested MSWord column formatting worked great.

Thank you.
