How to use Transpose Excel Rows and Columns

  1. 1Select your file, or drop it on the page
  2. 2Run it — nothing to set up
  3. 3Download transposed.xlsx

Your file is opened in an isolated sandbox with no internet access, processed and deleted with it. It is read the way people's spreadsheets really are — headers that are not on row 1, merged cells, totals pasted at the bottom, dates in two formats — and everything that is changed is listed back to you.

Questions

How do I switch rows and columns in Excel?

Upload the file and download it transposed: what were rows are columns, with the first column as the new header.

Is it the same as Paste Special → Transpose?

The result is the same, without selecting ranges, and it works on a CSV too.

Is there a size limit?

Excel has 16,384 columns, so a table with more rows than that cannot be turned on its side.

Is my file kept?

Your file is not: it is processed in an isolated sandbox that is deleted afterwards. The result waits behind its download link for 2 hours, then it is deleted too.
