    Post List to table

    Hi!

    I have a list in this format:

    entry 1
    entry 2
    entry 3
    entry 4
    entry 5


    entry 6
    entry 7
    entry 8
    entry 9
    entry 10


    entry 11
    entry 12
    entry 13
    entry 14
    entry 15

    and want to convert it into:

    entry 1 entry 6 entry 11
    entry 2 entry 7 entry 12
    entry 3 entry 8 entry 13
    entry 4 entry 9 entry 14
    entry 5 entry10 entry 15

    Is this possible without making a makro?

    Thanks for your help

    - Marco

    Hi Carim!

    Thanks for your attention, but I didn't express my problem clearly.
    I need to break up a one column list list into several columns, so the result becomes a table, in this case with 3 columns:

    entry1 entry6 entry11
    entry2 entry7 entry12
    entry3 entry8 entry13
    entry4 entry9 entry14
    entry5 entry10 entry15

    Been working with this for some hours now, pretty fed up. Really hope somebody knows...

    Hi VBA noob

    OK. My data layout is a column which I need to break up into a table with several columns. The original layout has empty cells where it is supposed to start a new column. So:

    entry1
    entry2
    entry3
    entry4

    entry5
    entry6
    entry7
    entry8

    should become a table with two columns and 4 rows:

    entry1
    entry6
    entry2
    entry7
    entry3
    entry8
    entry4
    entry9
    Can this be done without writing a macro?

    Where did entry5 go and how did you get entry9

    What are the cell references

    Easier if you attach a file.
