Transpose a variable length list
 

Do this against a copy of your workbook--or close without saving. It destroys
the original data:

Option Explicit
Sub testme02()
Dim wks As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim FirstRow As Long
Dim iRow As Long

Set wks = Worksheets("Sheet1")

With wks
FirstRow = 2 'headers in row 1
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
For iRow = LastRow To FirstRow + 1 Step -1
If Trim(.Cells(iRow, "A").Value) = "" Then
.Cells(iRow - 1, "B").Value = .Cells(iRow - 1, "B").Value _
& "," & .Cells(iRow, "B").Value
.Rows(iRow).Delete
End If
Next iRow
End With
End Sub

Transpose a variable length list
 

Try one of these two macros:
Sub ToRow2()
With ActiveCell
.Offset(1, 0).Resize(9, 1).Copy
.Offset(0, 1).PasteSpecial Transpose:=True
End With
End Sub

Sub ToRow()
With ActiveCell
.Resize(9, 1).Copy
.Offset(0, 1).PasteSpecial Transpose:=True
End With
End Sub

This won't work for the OP's original data.

That size of each group was variable.
