If your data is an column A starting at Cell A1, then the following
formula, entered in Cell B1 and filled across 8 columns and down 50
rows will produce 8 columns of 50 rows. Any more or less than 400 original
rows, you do the math and make alterations.
=INDIRECT("A"&(ROW()+(COLUMN()-2)*50))
The 2 refers to the column of Cell B1; if you're putting the formula in
a different column, use the appropriate number for that column.
Copy>Paste Special(in place) the results then delete the original column A.
VBA Macro to snake the columns top to bottom...1 to 50 down then 51 to 100
