I have a file that is stored in a column type fashion, when I transpose the
the worksheet so it will be more database friendly, rows, I end up with
multiple serial numbers in columns to the right rather than down. Example

This is what I have now:

Part Nbr    Part Desc    Inventory Location    Date of Inventory    Serial Nbr                   
12345    XYZ    New York    03/12/08    543    709    2889    2803    555
4321    ZZZ    New York    03/12/08    123    321    456    654       

This is what I want:
Part Nbr    Part Desc    Inventory
Location    Date of Inventory    Serial Nbr
12345    XYZ    New York    03/12/08    543
12345    XYZ    New York    03/12/08    709
12345    XYZ    New York    03/12/08    2889
12345    XYZ    New York    03/12/08    2803
12345    XYZ    New York    03/12/08    555
12345    XYZ    New York    03/12/08    2884
4321    ZZZ    New York    03/12/08    123
4321    ZZZ    New York    03/12/08    321
4321    ZZZ    New York    03/12/08    456
4321    ZZZ    New York    03/12/08    654
4321    ZZZ    New York    03/12/08    789
4321    ZZZ    New York    03/12/08    987
