Getting Down To Work - Microsoft Excel

Sometimes you need to move a row or column that already contains data.

Click on the row or column heading and the entire row or column will highlight.
Move your cursor to the border of the row or column.  When the cursor changes to a move pointer,   you can drag the row or column and all of its contents to a new place in the spreadsheet.

Be careful not to overwrite content.  For example, if you wanted to move the data in column A so that it now sits betwen columns B and C, you will need to Insert a new column there first.  Do this by clicking in the column heading next to where you want the new column to appear and then right-click and choose Insert.

You can also select portions of rows or columns or individual cells to move using the same method.
