Hello,

So all the company names in COlumn a, all the address in column b, phone in c...and so on. Is there a formula that I can run?

suppose data is like this from A1 down to A9


a
ad1
1
s
ad2
2
d
ad3
3




now in sheet 1 in A1 type (or copy paste this formula)

=(IF(ROW(A1)<=COUNTA(Sheet1!$A:$A)/3,OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1,(COLUMN(A1)-1)*3+ROW(A1)-1,0,1,1),0))


copy A1 both down and to the right till you get 0

delete 0s. do you get what you want?
In sheet1 now you are having 3 sets of data. you can have as many sets as you like but in each set the first is name, second address and third phone no;.

If it's just a one time thing - you copy the information, then paste special - hit the 'transpose' button
