How To Move A Column In Excel?

Select the column header you want to move (click the letter at the top).

Cut the column:

Right-click the selected column header and choose Cut, or

Press Ctrl + X.

Select the column where you want to place the moved column.

Insert the cut column:

Right-click the destination column header and choose Insert Cut Cells, or

Press Ctrl + V to paste (and replace/move as appropriate).

If you want to drag instead:

Select the column header.

Move your cursor to the border of the selected column until it changes to a move cursor.

Click and drag to the new location, then release.

If drag-and-drop doesn’t move it:

Use Cut and Insert Cut Cells instead.
