COMMON QUESTIONS
Why does my formula show as #value in Excel?
Often #VALUE! occurs because your formula refers to other cells that contain spaces, or even trickier: hidden spaces. These spaces can make a cell look blank, when in fact they are not blank.

Why is transpose not working in sheets?
There is not enough space for transposed values. For example, if you want to transpose values in ten cells in a row, you need to secure enough space for the formula to expand the values - ten cells in a column.

How do you fix an array formula?
Press Ctrl+Shift+Enter after entering the formula.

Transcript
00:00Have you tried using transpose function in your Excel and you end up with this
00:04sort of an error? Well there's a workaround for it and this is how I do it.
00:07First you got to be aware of your table here so you got A to F which is about
00:11six rows and 11 columns so you're gonna have to highlight six rows 1 2 3 4 5 6
00:17all the way and 11 columns like this and then you're gonna start typing the
00:21formula equal transpose and then highlight the cell area that you want to
00:26transpose close parenthesis and here's the thing you have to press ctrl shift
00:31enter which converts that into an array and there you have it the transpose is
00:35working on a standalone Excel but if you're one of those lucky few people who
00:39have Microsoft 365 subscription you just go in here without having to count the
00:43column and row and selecting the area you just simply type equal transpose open
00:49parenthesis and select the data set table and then you simply hit enter and the
00:53table will be easily transposed without the need of mumbo-jumbo process of
00:57counting rows and columns and highlighting
