Sorting Data in MS Access

18 New Member
Hi

I am trying to import some data from MS Excel and re order it within Access.

The data within the excel is laid out as below

Col 1 Col 2
Abuse Date 31/03/2011
Alert Source Health Care Worker
Abuse Location Home


The problem i have is that i require the data in the format of a standard table (See below)

Abuse Date | Alert Source | Abuse Location
31/03/2011 | Health Care Worker | Home

Any ideas would be much appreciated. I have quite a good grasp of both Access queries and VBA.

Thanks

Andy

You could either pivot the table in Access or transpose the data in excel before importing.
