This will give you the same data set, but here the cells are linked to the original data set (for example G1 is linked to A1, and G2 is linked to A2, and so on).

This means that if your original data changes and you want the transposed data to be updated as well, then you need to use Paste Special again to transpose it. Using Paste Special alone gives you static data. Transpose Data using Paste Special and Find & Replace If you want these transposed cells to be linked to the original cells, you can combine the power of Find & Replace with Paste Special. Note that the copied data is static, and if you make any changes in the original data set, those changes would not be reflected in the transposed data. If you only want to copy the value, select ‘value’ in the paste special dialog box. The steps shown above copies the value, the formula (if any), as well as the format. Below is a demo showing the entire process. This would instantly copy and paste the data but in such a way that it has been transposed.

In the paste special dialogue box, check the transpose option in the bottom right.In this example, I want to copy in G1:K5, so right-click on cell G1 and select paste special.
