Rearranging Data in a Table

[rwmill9716]

I have stock trading results in Columns AX through BD (hundreds of rows). I need formula for Columns BE through BI that will let me rearrange the data as shown. Essentially, I'm taking data that's presented as 1 row per symbol and converting it to 2 rows per symbol then rearranging the data as shown into those two rows: the 1/2 position trade results (date and profit) are moved to single columns.

Thanks for your help,

Just copy Symbol column into new sheet, make a space between each symbol using macro and then copy it back to col BE and then use vlookup formula to fetch the rest of the columns for that symbol.

Thanks, Sunny,

What would the macro look like that would loop through 1000 of these rows? I like the Vlookup approach. Since the same symbol will occur multiple times, I will have to confine each vlookup formula to two rows and copy it down the list.
