Transpose table in Word

Is there a way to transpose (swap rows and columns) in post-ribbon Microsoft Word (currently using 2013)?

For example, in this table, I want the top headings to go on the left (én, te, etc), and the left headings (van, megy, jön) go to the top (obviously with the data moved also) table to be transposed

I currenly copy and paste into Excel, copy and paste again but choose the special paste option : Transpose, then copy back to word. But is there a proper way to do this natively?

I think using Excel is the only way.

Try this macro:

Sub transpose01() ' ' transpose01 Macro ' ' ' to transpose rows and columns in a table Dim NumCols As Long, NumRows As Long, RowCounter As Long, ColCounter As Long Dim CellText As String NumCols = ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Columns.Count NumRows = ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Rows.Count ActiveDocument.Tables.Add Range:=Selection.Range, NumRows:=NumCols, NumColumns:=NumRows RowCounter = 0 While RowCounter < NumRows ColCounter = 0 While ColCounter < NumCols CellText = ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Cell(RowCounter + 1, ColCounter + 1).Range.Text CellText = Left(CellText, Len(CellText) - 2) ActiveDocument.Tables(2).Cell(ColCounter + 1, RowCounter + 1).Range.InsertBefore CellText ColCounter = ColCounter + 1 Wend RowCounter = RowCounter + 1 Wend ' End Sub

Any experience with this: there maybe a fee after free trial?
