In the worksheet Column G is data Designation and Column H is data that goes with Column G. on each row. I need help in converting rows below row 1_12 for each individual soldier in column G to columns on new worksheet. The original rows have a Data_ID that corresponds with Data in Column G and H, not sure if this would help in the conversion.. Step one would include the rows with Data following Data_ID 1_12 (Column G) these would be moved to another worksheet and transposed to columns. Column H would then be moved to the new worksheet and the data entry would be placed on rows below the corresponding Column in step one.

Number of entries will be different for each soldier.

Worksheet has 1145 Soldiers and with 27486 rows of data.

Is this possible?
