Col A has about 45,000 vertical cells containing data. Each "block" of
related data (from "Name" thru "Amount") occupies either 5 or 6 cells.
Each "block" always contains the "Name", "Stock Number", "Street",
"City" and "Amount"; however, the "Age" may not always exist. There
are between 7,500 and 9,000 "blocks".

For example: Col A contains the data; Cols B thru G is the result I'm
looking for:

A B C D E F G

How can I "transpose" each "blocks" of related data horizontally from
Cols B thru G?

(Sorry if the data in the columns don't align; if a fixed (monospace)
font was available, the example would look better).

Hi,

The following works to a point, the only issue would be where the age is
missing the cells wont align & relies on the contents not just the format of
the amount field being $.

Its a start.

Regards,

Chris.

Public Sub Reformat()

Dim lRowCopy As Long
Dim lRowPaste As Long
Dim lColumnPaste As Long

lRowCopy = 1
lRowPaste = 1
lColumnPaste = 1

Do Until IsEmpty(Sheets(1).Cells(lRowCopy, 1))

If Left(Sheets(1).Cells(lRowCopy, 1), 1) = "$" Then

Sheets(2).Cells(lRowPaste, lColumnPaste) =
Sheets(1).Cells(lRowCopy, 1)
lColumnPaste = 1
lRowPaste = lRowPaste + 1

Else

Sheets(2).Cells(lRowPaste, lColumnPaste) =
Sheets(1).Cells(lRowCopy, 1)
lColumnPaste = lColumnPaste + 1

End If

lRowCopy = lRowCopy + 1

Loop

End Sub
