Default Database function - convert flat table

Hi All,

I'm linking a worksheet to a table on a website on Internet. The data on
the table is in the following format:

LETTER NUMBER COLOR
Alpha One Green
Alpha Two Purple
Bravo Two Orange
Delta Seven Green
Delta One Nine
Etc.


The format I need is the following:

NUMBER One Two Three Four Five Six Seven
LETTER
Alpha Green Purple
Bravo Orange
Charlie
Delta Green
Echo Nine
Etc.


So:
The first column in the old table should become row headers (records)
The second column should become column headers (fields)
The third column should become the data


I thought I'd be able to do that with Pivot tables, but that just allows
you to summarize, count, etc.

I know that the information in the table is unique. E.g. there is no
instance where data in a record's field would be filled twice.

It's easy enough to import the table into Access, analyze it, and then
move it to Excel. However, I want to have a permanent link with the data
so that I can instantaneously refresh the information (and the results
of the analysis of that information).

Thanks,


Arjen
