Default How do I swap data in columns and rows around?

I've exported a load of data into excel but the info in the columns I want in
rows and vice versa. I'm sure there must be an easy way to flip them.. Can
anyone help?

As long as you have enough columns to support the number of rows you need, you
can select the range, copy it (Edit|Copy).

Then select a destination cell (outside that selected area) and Edit|paste
special|click transpose.

(Edit|copy and edit|paste special are from the xl2003 menubars)

Copy the data and then 'paste special'....'transpose'
