The best I can give you is to select that column, hit Edit-go to-special,
blanks, hit OK.
Now type a formula as if you would for the first blank cell (suppose it's C6
and you want to grab the data from C5, just type =C5.
Hit Ctrl+Enter to put the formula in all the selected cells.

...
I am needing to evaluate a column of data and if a cell in that column
is blank I need to fill that cell with what is in the preceeding column
but if there is a value in the cell just skip over it and move to the
next cell. Any help to get me going would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
