Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
Nothing happens at all? Do you get any errors? If not, can you step through the code and hover over "cells(j,i)" does one of the values that should be copied show up in the yellow tool tip?

A simple, easy to adapt macro based on Post #1
No change needed if the amount of columns change.
Code:
Sub Maybe()
Dim lr As Long, lc As Long, i As Long
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row
lc = Cells(2, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
    For i = 2 To lc
        Cells(Rows.Count, lc + 2).End(xlUp).Offset(1).Resize(lr - 1).Value = Cells(2, i).Resize(lr - 1).Value
    Next i
End Sub

End Sub
Nothing happen as well sir, i think the code did not run after clicking..tried multiple times already

The code I created adds the values to the last value present in column H. If there's any data already in column H prior to running the code, it will add it to the bottom.

If you'd like, I can hardcode it so it always starts in row 2. Would that fix your issue?

Yes please, the only data present in column H is the header( Result here). If you can move it to H2 that you be very great sir.

Just change the ranges in the formula (whichever one you want). For example:

Rich (BB code):
=IF(ROWS(H$2:H2)>COUNTA($B$2:$D$20),"",INDEX($B$2:$D$20,MOD(ROWS(H$2:H2)-1,COUNTA($A$2:$A$20))+1,INT((ROWS(H$2:H2)-1)/COUNTA($A$2:$A$20))+1))

or

Rich (BB code):
=IF(ROWS(F$2:F2)>COUNTA($B$2:$D$20),"",INDEX($1:$1000,MOD(SMALL(IF($B$2:$D$20<>"",COLUMN($B$2:$D$20)*1000+ROW($B$2:$D$20)),ROWS(F$2:F2)),1000),INT(SMALL(IF($B$2:$D$20<>"",COLUMN($B$2:$D$20)*1000+ROW($B$2:$D$20)),ROWS(F$2:F2))/1000)))

Change those to $B$2:$F$100, or whatever you require. If your columns have more data, you may need to change the $20 reference as well in several places. If you have over 1000 rows per column, you'll need to change the 1000's in the second formula to something bigger, like 100000.
