Column List to Multiple Columns
 
I am using Microsoft Excel 2007. I have an account number in C:2.
Associated with this account number is a set (in a column) of 3 digit
numbers in W:2, W:3, W:4, W:5. When there are multiple 3 digit numbers
in Column W, there are blank spaces under C:2. When the next account
number appears (C:6), it has it's own set of 3 digit numbers. I need
to take each 3 digit number associated with the account number and
move them into adjacent columns on the same line as the account
number. So, W:3 would move to X:2, W:4 would move to Y:2, W:5 would
move to Z:2 and so on. I assume I need a VB solution. Can anyone help
me with this? Thank you very much in advance.

Sorry, I thought I had to multi-post. Do you know where you replied to

You should have kept track of the newsgroups you posted to - if you
multi-post then your answers get fragmented, and most respondents look
at many newsgroups so there is no need to do it.

And hence the problem with multi-posting. For your future consideration...

From a post by Jeff Johnson in the compiled VB newsgroups:

"You have posted this question individually to multiple groups.
This is called Multiposting and it's BAD. Replies made in one
group will not be visible in the other groups, which may cause
multiple people to respond to your question with the same answer
because they didn't know someone else had already done it. This
is a waste of time.

If you MUST post your message to multiple groups, post a single
message and select all the groups (or type their names manually
in the Newsgroups field, separated by commas) in which you want
it to be seen. This is called Crossposting and when used properly
it is GOOD."

Some additional comment previously posted by me:

"You may not see this as a problem, but those of us who volunteer
answering questions on newsgroups do see it as a problem. You can't
imagine how annoying it is for a volunteer to read a question,
research background material, test sample code and then formulate
and post an answer to the original question only to go to another
newsgroup and find the question posted and ALREADY answered over
there. On top of that, if you cross-post your question, all of the
readers in all the newsgroups it is cross-posted to see both the
original question and all of the answers given to it. This is
beneficial to you because then we can add additional material to,
add clarification to, as well as add additional examples to an
answer you have received previously... that means you end up with
a more complete solution to your problem. This is a win-win
situation for all of us."

Well, the OP emailed me directly, so I sent him a sample workbook
showing in stages how to achieve his aim.
