![]() You're going to have to give more details. Can you give an example of what you are trying to do? What part of the number would go into another column? -- mphell0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mphell0's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30153 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=513237 |

I have imported a file of telephone numbers. There are 15,000 numbers in a
single column. If I printed or displayed the numbers, I would only see 60 (or so)per page. I would like to move spread those 15,000 telephone numbers in multiples columns. So when I run a report, I have numbers in 6 or 8 columns rather than one. Purely for printing and display. "mphell0" wrote: You're going to have to give more details.

Do the following:
Decide on the number of columns that you want. Let us say you want 6 columns. In the row put the numbers 0...5 (a total of 6 numbers) Assuming you want your transferred data to start from row 2, below the 0, use the following formula: =OFFSET($A$2,(ROW()-2)*6+D$1,0) In this formula, we assume your phone numbers start from A2, that you have 6 columns and that the 0...5 start from D1. Copy as far down and across as necessary. HTH Kostis Vezerides |

You could do something like this. Since 15000/6 = 2500, you could hit Cntl-g
(for goto, type the range a2500:a5000 (or something very similar) hit cntl-x (for cut,) then right arrow end up (hopefully you will now be in b1,) and cntl-v for paste. Repeat the process going from, for instance a5001:a7500 (or thereabouts.) When finished doing all 6 (or 8) columns, go down to row 2500. Hold shift and then hit cntl-end to go to the bottom of your spreadsheet, right click and hit delete and answer entire row. Then save (this should make it so Excel doesn't think your used range is as far down as it was originally.) -- Kevin Vaughn "coach eo" wrote: 15000 telephone numbers.
