Why not just use teh IF Function?

A3=IF(A20,A2,A1)

A20 This is you rule for a True or False
A2 Is returned if True
A1 Is returned if False

A B
1 1 2
2 0 2
3 1

s there a command that will copy the CELL from the row above it -- i.e.
copy A1 to copy A2
. I'm thinking of selection.filldown but i don't know how to adjust the
fields so that it only looks 1 row above it

i'm planing on using this in a loop for a selection that will scan a
series of rows and if there is a certain criteria i want it to copy the
cell from the row above

THANKS

Sub fill_in_the_blanks()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Columns("A:A").Select
For Each cell In Selection
If cell = "" Then
*copy the cell above it and paste the cell from above to here*
End If
Next cell
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
