DevTnT 9 – Transpose Functionality in Excel

In Excel, the Transpose function returns a transposed range of cells. For example, a horizontal range of cells is returned if a vertical range is entered as a parameter. Or a vertical range of cells is returned if a horizontal range of cells is entered as a parameter.

This can be useful especially if you have to copy rows from a database with a large number of fields. The transposed row-oriented result may be easier to read as the default column-oriented view:

  1. Highlight the cells that you want to copy.
  2. Then right-click on the cell where you'd like to paste the values and select Paste Special from the popup menu.
  3. Then select the Transpose checkbox and click on the OK button.
