Move rows into columns
 

I have an Excel sheet that has 8000+ rows that include contact information.
I'd like to move them from all of those rows into 6 columns. Currently it
lookzs like:

name
title
company
address
city/state/zip
phone
....
....
....

And I'd like to create a formula to move it to 6 columns that look like this:

name title company address city/state/zip phone

I'm still an Excel novice but would appreciate any suggestions you might
have. Thanks!

Move rows into columns
 

You will need VBA code to get this done. If you would like I could whip up a
code for you if your willing to send me a copy of your workbook?

Move rows into columns
 

If your information is in column A starting in A1 then in cell B1 enter
=INDIRECT("A"&((ROW()-1)*6)+1)
copy this down column B to give all "names". In cell C1 enter
=INDIRECT("A"&((ROW()-1)*6)+2)
copy this down column C for all the "titles"
etc. etc. just increase the last nuber by 1 as you go across your 6 columns

Move rows into columns
 

Assuming column A with consistent sets of data........six cells to a set.

In B1 enter =INDEX($A:$A,(ROWS($1:1)-1)*6+COLUMNS($A:B)-1)

Copy across to G1

Select B1:G1 and copy down until you get zeros.

I think the fastest way is to do a paste special then transpose...
