Morning,

Hoping someone might have knowledge that may help me. I have to run a data pull every month. It comes in a certain format, and I need to transpose it into another format. I understand the transpose part, but only for a single set of data. My data is about 6000 rows long.

This is the format the data comes in:

I can do a transpose and manually copy/paste each 'color', but with 150 colors this would take me a long time. Was hoping there was a formula or macro that can achieve this with a few strokes.

This is beyond my knowledge of excel, so hoping I can find help here.

Thanks,
 
You are amazing man. Appreciate all your help, this saved me hours of work a month.
