Column to Row Converter

Convert columns (lines) to rows with custom separator

Frequently Asked Questions

What is column to row conversion?

Column to row conversion transforms vertical lists (one item per line) into horizontal lists separated by a custom delimiter. For example, converting a list of items into a comma-separated string for use in databases or spreadsheets.

What separator options are available?

You can use any text as a separator including commas (,), pipes (|), semicolons (;), spaces, tabs, or longer strings. Common presets include comma-space for CSV, pipe for delimited data, and space for simple lists.

How are empty lines handled?

Empty lines are automatically filtered out during conversion. Only lines containing content are included in the final output, ensuring clean results without extra separators.

When is column to row conversion useful?

This tool is useful for creating CSV rows, SQL IN clauses, comma-delimited lists, configuration arrays, and any situation where you need to transform vertical data into horizontal format for programming or data processing.
