Default Auto fill cells

You could do this without the use of VBA

Select the column with the blanks.

F5SpecialBlanksOK

Type an = sign in active blank cell.

Point or arrow to cell above.

Hit CTRL + ENTER.

I am dumping a file from another program. In one of the columns, the account

automatically go through and fill the other cells in each group with the
account number? I could manualy copy and paste each group, but the report is
12,000 lines. I don't have that much time and my interns have left for the
day.

I appreciate the help
