No... not exactly. I want the cell to be completed with all periods after
each name. I have one name per cell from A7 down to A50... and after each
name I want to see periods up to the end of the cell.

Renee,

I think you're asking how to get Excel to complete a cell with known values
(like Brian's full name when you've only started to type it). But I'm not
at all sure. If so, post back. There's a way.
