Crosstab, Transform, or Pivot? I'm lost...

Trying to figure out the best way to turn my rows into columns, while maintaining the values and headers. Looks like a reverse crosstab query or something. I'm an amateur btw...

I have about 35 columns that I want to stay the same (keep as columns), then about 50 column that have months (Oct_2016, Nov_2016, etc.) across the top where I want the months as a single column with the value next to it.

Example below

Current table:
[TABLE="width: 500"]

Any idea how I can do this MS Access? Ideally using the designer type of UI vs. SQL/VBA, but I'm open to anything that works...

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
you can try PowerQuery aka Get&Transform

Code:
[SIZE=1]let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Industry", type text}, {"Customer", type text}, {"October", Int64.Type}, {"November", Int64.Type}, {"December", Int64.Type}, {"January", Int64.Type}, {"February", Int64.Type}, {"March", Int64.Type}, {"April", Int64.Type}, {"May", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Industry", "Customer"}, "Attribute", "Value")
in
    #"Unpivoted Other Columns"[/SIZE]

A crosstab query should work for Access, also. Did you try that?
