Do you have merged cells, if so unmerge them. Since you are new at Excel it
would save you a lot of future headache if you avoid using merged cells

Thank you, this helped and I got it to work on a couple of columns.

Sometimes when I try to do this, however, it states that the data in the
cell I am copying into the other cells is not the same size (it's one cell
going into multiple cells).

Hi BusyHighLighter

If you select for example A1:A10 and enter some text you can use Ctrl
Enter to fill all
cells with your text.
Another way is to copy the cell and paste it in the other cells

Hello,

I'm new to this forum and have a question about repeating things in
cells.
How can I paste the contents of one cell into more than one cell?

I'm trying to make an address book and take the state abbreviation into
several cells.

Thank you!
