Retain value of merged cell in all unmerged cells
I have a table with a column of data that has merged cells with a value in
it, I would like to unmerge the cells, but retain the value of the cell in all of the unmerged cells instead of only the top cell. Is there a way or macro to do this? |

Retain value of merged cell in all unmerged cells
After unmerging, highlight all the cells in that column in your table,
then press F5 (GoTo) and click on Special, then on blanks - you should see only the blank (unmerged) cells highlighted. Then begin to type a formula by entering = and then click on the cell immediately above the first cell that is selected and then CTRL-ENTER. Now you can fix the values in that column using <copy and Edit | Paste Special | Values. Hope this helps.
