colum split

I have a single column of 70K plus entries that I want to split into multiple columns of about 50 each. Any suggestions?

    An alternative could be Power Query. In the attached file you can add data in the blue dynamic table. Then you can click in any cell of the green table and right-click with the mouse. Then you can select refresh to update the result.

    Three possibilities with formulas:

     

    =TRANSPOSE(INDEX(A2:A70001,SEQUENCE(ROUNDUP(70000/50,0),50)))
    
    =WRAPCOLS(A2:A70001,50)
    
    =MAKEARRAY(50,ROUNDUP(70000/50,0),LAMBDA(a,b,INDEX(A2:A70001,a+((b-1)*50))))

     

    WRAPCOLS() is only available for Excel Insiders.

    Sub fifty()
    
    Dim i As Long
    Dim j As Long
    Dim k As Long
    Dim m As Long
    
    i = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
    k = 3
    m = 1
    
    For j = 1 To i
    
    Cells(m, k).Value = Cells(j, 1).Value
    m = m + 1
    
    If j Mod 50 = 0 Then
    k = k + 1
    m = 1
    Else
    End If
    
    Next j
    
    End Sub

    Maybe with these lines of code. In the attached file you can click the button in cell B2 to run the macro.
