Default Columns with missing data that needs filled in

Duke,
Not working quite right. Column 1, see the missing numbers this col. should
look like the one next to it. The formula should be for col. A not B. Also,
it is not putting in the correct # it is putting in zeros.

Assume your data is in col A, starting in row 2
Insert a blank column to the left, so that the data is now in column B
In A2 enter the formula

=if(b2<B1,B2,b1)

Copy it down to the last desired row
Select all these new formulas and copy them
Use Edit-Paste Speical-Values to replace formulas with the results.
Delete the original column of data.

I have a worksheet with thousands of rows of data. One column has data as
shown below. Notice the blank lines. What I need is a formula that would make
the data look like the column I show next to it. I know iI have seen this
written before but I can't remember the formula to do it. Please Help. Thx.
