Hi,

I have three long columns of data that look like this:

A B C
Sam Tim 24
Tim
Lee Sue 36
Ann
Sue Lee 48

my goal is to match columns B and C with column A.

Is there a macro I can use to match them up side-by-side and make them look like this?

A B C
Sam
Tim Tim 24
Lee Lee 48
Ann
Sue Sue 36


Thanks
