Solution

  • If it is always three rows, blank, three rows, you can do this in powerquery, pasted into home...advanced editor...

    let Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
row_groupings = 3,
#"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(Source, each ([Name] <> null and [Name] <> "")), 
#"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Filtered Rows", "Index", 0, 1, Int64.Type),
#"Added Index1" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Added Index", "Index.1", 0, 1, Int64.Type),
Column = Table.TransformColumns(#"Added Index1",{{"Index", each Number.Mod(_, row_groupings), Int64.Type}}),
Row = Table.TransformColumns(Column,{{"Index.1",each Number.IntegerDivide(_, row_groupings), Int64.Type}}),
#"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(Table.TransformColumnTypes(Row, {{"Index", type text}}, "en-US"), List.Distinct(Table.TransformColumnTypes(Row, {{"Index", type text}}, "en-US")[Index]), "Index", "Name"),
#"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Pivoted Column",{"Index.1"})
in  #"Removed Columns"
