Hello :)

I have been reading this Similar Thread but cannot work out how to alter the solution to solve my problem.

I have a Worksheet which runs columns A through BC with approximately 2,000 rows, here is a shortened version with just 2 rows: Workbook

For each existing row: for each non-blank cell in columns Q, S, U, etc. (i.e. alternate columns from Q through BC) I need to Insert an additional row and copy down the contents of columns A through P. Then I need to transpose the values in columns Q, S, U, etc. (i.e. alternate columns from Q through BB) into column Q and the values in columns R, T, V, etc. (i.e. alternate columns from R through BC) into column R.

This is probably better explained by an example, so I have mocked-up the desired result on the second tab of the Workbook

Many Thanks in advance for any help

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
transpose of data means horizontal row becomes vertical column and vice versa. to me the attached workbooks are not clear.

There seems to be an anomaly with your data. In the repeated Date & Read columns, which start at column Q and end at column BC, there are 20 Date columns but only 19 Read columns. So I have assumed that the data might actually go to column BD, giving 20 of each.

Try this in a copy of your workbook. This creates a new worksheet with the results.

Code:
Sub Rearrange()
  Dim a As Variant, b As Variant
  Dim i As Long, j As Long, c As Long, r As Long, uba2 As Long
  
  With Sheets("Raw")
    a = .Range("A1:BD" & .Range("A" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
  End With
  uba2 = UBound(a, 2)
  ReDim b(1 To 20 * UBound(a), 1 To 18)
  For i = 2 To UBound(a)
    For j = 17 To uba2 Step 2
      If Len(a(i, j)) Then
        r = r + 1
        For c = 1 To 16
          b(r, c) = a(i, c)
        Next c
        b(r, 17) = a(i, j): b(r, 18) = a(i, j + 1)
      End If
    Next j
  Next i
  Sheets.Add After:=Sheets("Raw")
  With Sheets(Sheets("Raw").Index + 1)
    .Range("A2").Resize(r, 18).Value = b
    .Range("A1:R1").Value = Sheets("Raw").Range("A1:R1").Value
    .UsedRange.Columns.AutoFit
  End With
End Sub
