Excel Facts

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().
Why do you show two column 1's

Excel only has one column 1

We normally use the terms column and Rows not lines.

And what row do you want this data copied to. And do we start copying into Row(5) column (C)

Hi Guys, I have huge amount of data to be copied from vertical (two lines) to horizontal (single line).
See if this is any use. I have assumed data is in columns A:B, starting at row 2. Results shown at right.
Test in a copy of your workbook.
Code:
Sub ColumnsToRow()
  Dim a As Variant, b As Variant
  Dim i As Long, j As Long, k As Long
  
  a = Range("A2", Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Value
  ReDim b(1 To 1, 1 To UBound(a) * 2)
  For i = 1 To UBound(a)
    For j = 1 To UBound(a, 2)
    k = k + 1
    b(1, k) = a(i, j)
    Next j
  Next i
  Range("D2").Resize(, UBound(b, 2)).Value = b
End Sub

If we are to assume that we are dealing with column A and B
And assuming we start in row(2)

Try this:
Code:
Sub Test()
'Modified 5/6/2018 11:10 PM  EDT
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim i As Long
Dim Lastrow As Long
Dim s As Long
Dim z As Long
Lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
s = 4
z = 5
    For i = 2 To Lastrow
        Cells(2, s).Value = Cells(i, 1).Value
        Cells(2, z).Value = Cells(i, 2).Value
        z = z + 2
        s = s + 2
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Assuming your data starts in cell A2, here is a non-looping macro that should also work...
Code:
[table="width: 500"]
[tr]
	[td]Sub DoubleColumnToSingleRow()
  Dim Arr As Variant
  Arr = Split(Join(Evaluate(Replace("TRANSPOSE(A2:A#&""|""&B2:B#)", "#", Range("A2").End(xlDown).Row)), "|"), "|")
  With Range("D2").Resize(, UBound(Arr) + 1)
    .Value = Arr
    .Value = .Value
  End With
End Sub[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

Thank you Peter, it was a real time saver.
You are very welcome. :)

BTW ...
1. Best not to fully quote longish posts as it makes the thread harder to read/navigate and just occupies storage space needlessly. If you want to quote, quote small, relevant parts only.

2. You said that you had a "huge" amount of data. I'm wondering just how much? Of course Excel only has 16,000+ columns so I assume that your data couldn't be more than about 8,000 rows which actually isn't very huge when you consider Excel has over 1,000,000 rows. :)
