๐ป Formula Structure
=TRANSPOSE(array)
- 1. Array: The range of cells to flip (e.g., A1:A5).
- Result: A dynamic spill range with swapped dimensions.
-- Flip the array
=TRANSPOSE( A1:A3 )
โ ๏ธ Common Pitfalls
๐ซ Value Only
TRANSPOSE creates a copy of the values. It does not link formatting (colors, bold text) from the original cells.
๐ก Paste Special
If you want to transpose data statically (without a formula) and keep formatting, use Copy > Paste Special > Transpose instead.
