I've looked at some past transposition help threads and they seem to be dealing with much more complicated formulas than what I'd like to do today and in the future.

I have special pasted info from my chat's banned user lists and they are in groups of 4 rows per "entry"

I only want to transpose each group of 4 rows (1 column) into 1 row (4 columns)

I can do this manually by selecting and copying 4 cells and transposing them into a cell to the right.

The question is, is there a simple formula I can use for this?

Thank you!!!! That did exactly what I needed.

Seems similar to another formula I used to use to find distinct names in a column, where you pull down until there's no more info to be found.
