Changing a column to a row
I have a table of census information broken down by neighborhood. I need to
transfer the data so that the neighborhood column becomes a neighborhood row and the census row becomes a column. For example, I have something like the following now Neighborhood Population Households Hunters Point 2,500 857 Traverse 6,700 2500 And I need something like this: Hunters Point Traverse Population 2,500 6,700 Households 857 2,500 I have been trying to do this with a pivottable, but it keeps summing things, and I could do it by hand, but the time constraints on this are not feasible due to the amount of data that I have. Any help is appreciated. Thank you. |
