How to Link Cells in Column to Cell in Rows
By John Campbell •
I have an Excel database. I want to link Column cells to Row Cells. One by one doing this will take so much time. I want to use some formula. Please help. Apart from that I also want to link cells to each other. Means when i click on Cell in Column. It should take me to linked Row Cell. and when i click on same row cell, it should bring me back to same cell in column.

If we have a column of data, say A1 through A21 and we want to link a row to it, pick a cell and enter:
=INDEX($A$1:$A$11,COLUMNS($A:A),0)and copy across:
Once this is done, hyperlinks can be assigned either manually or through a VBA macro.
Perhaps the easiest way is this:
- Count the number of rows and columns in the Source range.
- Select a the Destination range of cells with the opposite number of rows and columns (e.g. if the original range had 3 columns and 2 rows, the target range would have 2 columns and 3 rows).
- With the Destination range cells selected, type "=TRANSPOSE(" (use Tab to autocomplete).
- Select the source rows
- Press Ctrl + Shift + Enter
The animation below demonstrates the process in Excel 2010 with a 1 row x 3 column scenario.
