> Is it possible to create a list or table with the variables appearing

> The output should look like

> Observ1 Observ2 Observ3
> Var1 xx1 xx2 xx3
> Var2 yy1 yy2 yy3
> Var3 zz1 zz2 zz3

> This type of presenting the data would be very useful to compare two

> transpose the data, but this gets very inconvenient if the number of
> variables is larger than the number of columns in Excel (one has to
> paste it first horizontally before one can transpose it).
