How to split a column of imported data to multiple columns?

Hello Everyone, I am working on data analytics at my college. I am new to MATLAB and i am trying to import some data from excel woorksheet. I have imported the data but i am unable to split the columns into multiple columns. Let's say I have 108000 rows in a column and I want to split it into 216 columns of 500 elements in each column. I have tried "doc reshape" command but I got an error that the number of elements are not matching with the source. This have though I tried to split them into 2 columns of 54000 rows in each. Please help me in resolving this issue. The below is the code I tried.

doc reshape
>> A = BaseFFTPeak(54144,1)
A =
   9.3000e-05

>> B = reshape(A, 27072,2)
Error using reshape
| |To RESHAPE the number of elements must not change| | .

This works for me:

Col = randi(99, 108000, 1);             % Create Data
Mtx_1 = reshape(Col, 500, []);          % To (500 x 216)
Mtx_2 = reshape(Col, 54000, []);        % To (54000 x 2)
