Transpose a Table

Transposes a given table.

Overview

This procedure transposes a given table. It flips the table's rows to columns and the columns to rows. This may be useful when you want to view or work with your data from a different angle. For example, turning a list of dates in a column into headers across the top, or switching the focus from categories to individual entries.
