Macro to transpose data

Champ007,

(1) Will every entry have at least a Name, Company, Email Address, Date and Title?
(2) Are there any other entries that might appear (including blank rows)?
(3) Will every entry have the same sequence in column A, i.e. Name, Company, Division (optional), Email Address, Phone No (optional) and Date?
(4) What version of Excel do you (or the user(s)) have?

Thanks,
Brian.

(1) Yes
(2) No additional entries. But there may be blank rows
(3) Yes, the sequence is the same.  But as you noted, there are optional fields. These fields should be left blank in the "Formatted Data" worksheet.
(4) Excel 2007

Thanks

Champ007,

Assuming that there are no surprises in your answers, this can easily be done with formulas. Have you a strong preference for a macro solution?

Thanks,
Brian.

Champ007,

Oops, overlapping posts. The blank rows might be a problem. Let me have a think!

Brian.

The problem, as I see it, is not the Transpose Macro... it is easy to create if RAW sheet has ALL fields repeated, even if there is a blank space where there is Not Division or Phone Number information...

The lack of some "fields" in RAW Sheet could end having wrong entries when Transposing the data ... you could use a Search function to Paste values in Email Field if there is an @ in the names, but Not all @ means email address...

@Champ: It is possible for you to show ALL People with the same Format in RAW data ?... meaning as format, the same rows with data for each Person ?...
I'm doing this question as a formality, due that I think this is probably what you are triying to reach because you mention you have more than 5.000 rows of data...

redmondb,

I actually do prefer macros. There do not seem to be very many blank rows. I could manually remove if necessary.

Thanks

Champ007,

OK, let's see how the code below works for you.

I've made a couple of assumptions...
(1) Anything that begins with "(" is the Phone Number.
(2) Anything that contains an "@" is the Email Address.
(3) Anything that looks like a date is the Date value.

Champ007,

Oops, it doesn't handle a blank row immediately after Name. Please replace line 36 by the following...

 

ElseIf xCompany = "" Then

Select allOpen in new window

Very Nice!!!

Thanks Redmondb. That was an outstanding - over the top solution. Very much appreciated.

Great! Thanks, Champ007.
