Hi Carolin, You can probably do this without format conversion. Using Peak:Peak Lists - Synthetic Lists [Make transpose list]. This will give a separate peak list (still associated with the same spectrum) with the peak dimensions effectively swapped. This can be merged with the original peak list using Peak:Peak Lists - [Copy Peaks]. You may end up with unassigned duplicate peaks, but these are easily deleted.
