Transpose - link


Hi

I am trying to "link" a list of values in a column into a row . I need to keep the link "live" so the copy / paste-transpose is not what I need.

I have 100's of values in the column and this will be an extremely arduous manual task manually linking the column values into the row. Is there an automated way of doing this??

Cheers
NICK

RE: Transpose - link

Hi Nick,

Are you trying to do this in Excel?
Is it a hyperlink you are wanting to copy?

are you able to link the cell using the = sign?

Regards

Richard

Yes, trying to do this in Excel and trying to link the cells with the "=" sign - trying to link a vertical data series (column) into a horizontal data series (row)

Cheers

RE: Transpose - link

Nick,

I have simulated your question, and it seems that when I used the Transpose option, the links stayed live.

They were external links (ie . www.google.com)

You mention that you do not need to use transpose, so I am i bit confused. Do you want the link to be live from the original cell and the copied cell?

I think the word "link" is confusiung us here.

I am not referrring to hyperlinks - I am simply trying to establish a row of data (numbers) from a column of data (numbers). I can not however use the copy-paste transpose function as that only allows you to transpose 'values'

E.g. I want to recreate (link) the data in cells A1, B1, C1, D1, E1 ...... into B3, C3, C4, C5, C6......... using the "=" sign. I have hunders of rows of data so doing this manually will be a very time consuming task - is there a way of automating this function in excel??

What I need resolved should have a very simple solution, it is however difficult to explain - Is there a facility to attach a spreadhseet so that i can show you what I mean??

Cheers
NICK

Excel tip:

Manually rotating a 3D chart

To manually rotate a 3D chart;
Select the chart (edit mode) and click on one corner of the chart display area. A selection border will appear, using the left mouse button on one of the chart's "corners" (mouse pointer changes to a cross) drag the image which becomes a line representation of the chart (as you begin to drag) and rotate the chart to a view of your choice.
If you dont get it right first time, dont worry, the manoeuver is a little bit tricky.
