Default Auto Fill with pasting values

Hi,

I have a spreadsheet with approx 24,000 lines of data.
There are 4 blank rows between columns A B & C and
I need to copy the information down into the four blank
lines for every record. There is data in columns H onwards
pertaining to the blank lines (ie item above) so I can just
delete the lines if you get my drift.

Can anyone help? I am sure there is a quicker way than pasting
values for all records!!

Thank you

On a copy of your worksheet..................

Select columns A:C and F5SpecialBlanksOK

Type an = sign in active blank cell then point or arrow to the cell above and
hit CTRL + ENTER.

Then copypaste special(in place)valuesOKEsc.
