TSV Cols and Rows Exchanger

World's Simplest TSV Tool

Simple and free online TSV column rotator. Just paste a Tab-Separated Values table into the form below, and the tool will rotate the table so that each input column becomes a single output row. You can skip comment lines by specifying their marker and decide how missing TSV cells are filled when records have uneven lengths. Created by programmers from team Browserling.

TSV Comment Rows

Uneven TSV Records

Choose how to fill missing TSV cells.
Use this text when a missing TSV cell needs a custom filler.

What Is a TSV Cols and Rows Exchanger?

This online tool converts vertical Tab Separated Values (TSV) columns into horizontal TSV rows. It reads the input as a tab-delimited table, then rotates the layout so the first input column becomes the first output row, the second input column becomes the second output row, and so on. This is useful when a TSV export has fields stacked in columns, but another spreadsheet, script, or report needs the same fields arranged across rows. Empty input rows are removed during the conversion, and you can also skip comment rows by entering the marker that starts them, such as "#" or "//". If the TSV records are uneven and some rows are shorter than others, the tool can fill the missing cells with empty fields or with a custom value that you choose in the options. The result stays tab-separated, so it can be pasted back into spreadsheet software or saved as a clean TSV file. Tsv-abulous!

Convert Museum Metrics Columns to Rows

In this example, we rotate a small TSV table that tracks museum exhibit metrics. The input has three TSV columns named "exhibit", "visitors", and "guide", with each exhibit listed on a separate line. After conversion, these three vertical columns become three horizontal rows, making it easy to compare exhibit names, visitor counts, and guide assignments side by side.

exhibit visitors guide Maps 184 Ada Quartz 96 Noor Fossil 211 Ivan
exhibit Maps Quartz Fossil visitors 184 96 211 guide Ada Noor Ivan

Clean and Rotate Observatory Notes

This example converts TSV columns from an observatory night log into rows. The input includes an empty line and a comment row that starts with "//". By setting the comment marker to "//", the tool removes the note line before rotating the table. The remaining night, scope, target, and sky columns become four TSV rows in the output.

night scope target sky Jan-12 K2 Orion steady // lens check Jan-13 H4 M45 hazy Jan-14 V1 Mars clear
night Jan-12 Jan-13 Jan-14 scope K2 H4 V1 target Orion M45 Mars sky steady hazy clear

Fill Missing Bookbinding Order Cells

In this example, we convert an uneven TSV bookbinding order list from columns to rows. One order is missing its status, and the final order is missing both the due day and status. To keep every output row the same length, we select the custom fill mode and enter "pending" as the value for every missing cell.

order cover paper due status B18 linen laid Mon done B19 leather cream Tue B20 marbled cotton Wed ready B21 cloth ivory
order B18 B19 B20 B21 cover linen leather marbled cloth paper laid cream cotton ivory due Mon Tue Wed pending status done pending ready pending
