Subject: Re: Sorting Data from a Single Column
If the functions in the file at http://home.pacbell.net/beban are
available to your workbook, one way is to highlight a range of 5 columns
and 1/5th the number of rows of data in your data range (assumed to be
a1:a100 in this example) and array enter (enter with Ctrl+Shift+Enter
instead of just Enter)

=ArrayReshape(A1:A100,20,5)
