When you say "spreadsheet array" are you linking to Excel? If so, you should
be able to write a Union query to give what you want:
Assuming that the fields in the linked Excel table are named Field1, Apr,
May and Jun, your query would be something like:
SELECT Field1, "Apr" As WhatMonth, Apr FROM MyLinkedExcelTable
UNION
SELECT Field1, "May" As WhatMonth, May FROM MyLinkedExcelTable
UNION
SELECT Field1, "Jun" As WhatMonth, Jun FROM MyLinkedExcelTable
