Thanks for this! This simplifies some of the dull CnP-ing I’ll be doing the next few days.

@ David

Remember Macro outputs can never be undone (except for the workaround that you could save your file before testing your macro and revert to the saved file for an undesirable change done after executing the macro).

Anyone needing any help in designing or creating macros, would be more than happy to help

After setting up the macro, I performed a test. When I tried to undo the command just performed, I couldn’t. The undo function is disabled.

Any ideas on why or how to change?

Thank You

David

Clara – Macro will record anything you did while it was recording.

To get a “general” macro, you must NOT do things like selecting cells during recording, otherwise when you run macro it will do exact same things, for example:
step 1. click cell A5
step 2. press shift
step 3. click cell D8
step 4. …

So what you want when creating macro is NOT DO steps like 1/2/3 in my example.

I hope this helps, and to Mr. Byte – nice post! I forgot all about using macros for simple things like this one, good work!

I tried to create this macro and I found that it would only record the Transpose function from the dummy cells that I used to create the macro. Is there something I am missing?
