Cheat. Copy it to Excel. Copy/paste special in Excel choosing the Transpose

And, if you don't like cheating:

' Transposer Macro
' Macro creaeted 18/01/1999 by Doug Robbins
' to transpose rows and columns in a table
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) - 1)
ActiveDocument.Tables(2).Cell(ColCounter + 1, RowCounter +
1).Range.InsertBefore CellText
ColCounter = ColCounter + 1
Wend
RowCounter = RowCounter + 1
Wend

Dear Herb,
Thanks for your solution. Is there a way to convert Table 1 exactly into
Table 2?
I used Transpose function. It helped but it did not sort the table like A, B
and then A,B

I didn't study your 2nd table carefully before. I presumed because of the
subject line that you were transposing. Apparently not. Your example doesn't
swap rows and columns... it scrambles them, and the "to" table doesn't have
the same number of cells for each row:

1 A Arrow 3 cells
B Black 2 cells
2 A Air 3 cells
B Berry 2 cells

A and B both appear twice in the 2nd table, and "No" doesn't appear at all.
The two tables' symmetry doesn't match.

A very specific macro might be able to do it, but I don't believe that
Doug's macro would do it, either.
