Can I rotate data in Excel table (rows to columns, and vv)?
 
Is there a way - without using PivotTable - to rotate data in an Excel table:
rows become columns and columns become rows? I wouldn't mind cutting and
pasting, or macros, or anything else.

You can try using the Edit | Paste Sepcial |Transpose featu

1. Select and copy the data you want to transpose
2. Position the cell pointer in the first destination cell
3. Select Edit | Paste Special | Transpose

What was a column should now be a row and vice versa.

Depending on the number of rows you're using--since there's only 256 columns to
work with.

Select your range to Transpose.
find a nice open spot that doesn't touch that original range (a new sheet???)
Edit|paste special|check the Transpose box and hit ok.

Highlight the area covered by your table, then <copy, then move the
cursor away from your table where you want the new table to be, then
Edit | Paste Special | Transpose (near the bottom) then OK <esc.

Your could then delete your first table if you wish.

Hope this helps.

There's also a worksheet function you could use:

=transpose()

Say you want to transpose A1:B5, you could select C1:G2 and type:
=transpose(a1:b5)
but hit shift-ctrl-enter to do the work.

you guys are PHENOMENAL!

i remember the "paste special" transpose function now, but had forgotten it.
i didn't know about the worksheet transpose function, though. it's a shame
that it doesn't show in the help section under "rotate data" or "rotate
table", but only under "transpose." it really IS all about language, even in
numbers.

Is there a way to rotate info from a range for example:

10 134 - 1205 2.72 CELL1 FALSE FALSE
10 134 - 1402 0.12 CELL1 FALSE FALSE
into a single row where the info from above will display as follow


10 134 - 1205 2.72 CELL1 FALSE FALSE 10 134 - 1402 0.12 CELL1 FALSE FALSE
