I have an issue that I need to resolve.
I'm currently getting data in a row format, but I need to convert som
of the data into columns, for importing into Access.
For example......

Item | Description | Jan 05 | Feb 05 | Mar 05 | Apr 05
...........
ABC123 | Widget A | 100 | 250 | 175 | 210
|............
XYZ123 | Widget B | 50 | 75 |100 | 76
|............

To convert to........


Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4
Item | Description | Date | Qty
ABC123 | Widget A | Jan 05 | 100
ABC123 | Widget A | Feb 05 | 250
ABC123 | Widget A | Mar 05 | 175
ABC123 | Widget A | Apr 05 | 210

XYZ123 | Widget B | Jan 05 | 50
XYZ123 | Widget B | Feb 05 | 75
XYZ123 | Widget B | Mar 05 | 100
XYZ123 | Widget B | Apr 05 | 76
: : : :

All data is in individual cells (tried to show this with the pip
character).

I need to have this conversion automated as the files are prett
large.
There are several different files with different requirements for ho
many cells get transposed, therefore any solution needs to be flexibl
(easily rescripted by a novice to excel programming like myself).
Notice that I need to copy the item and description for each ro
element I transpose.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Colin
