Default Another Filter Question

Greetings again. I'm using VISTA and Excel 2007.

When I'm using "Filter by Selected Cell's Value," the rows containing this
value appear, of course, top to bottom. If I enter something in a blank cell
at the top I can copy the contents of this cell down to the bottom of the
filtered list, of course.

Is it possible to type in something the top cell and then with a mouse click
or whatever, fill in all the empty cells down to the bottom of the list
automatically (without dragging the mouse)? This works fine when I'm not
using a filter, but I can't seem to get it to work after filtering by the
cell's value. Obviously I am doing something wrong. Could you please tell me
how to do this? Thanks.

Hi Rebecca

After changing the entry in the topmost cell, press Enter.
Then, hover over the bottom right corner of that cell till you see the solid
black icondouble click
