Default alternate rows with date

10s! John Bundy, was interesting to know abt the formula
however
along the alternate row that was supposed to be blank, it shows some data
like 0-Jan

example:

A B C

1 01-May

2 0-Jan

3 02-May

4 0-Jan

able to use the formula, =if(b2="",b1,b2)
how can i remove the 0-Jan to have the alternate row with a Blank?

thanks for your great help!!

thanks community as well

The fastest way is to insert a column, then put in the following formula and
copy it down.
=IF(B2="",B1,B2)

We are just say that if the cell is blank, use the value in the cell above
it, if not then leave it alone.
