One easy play which should deliver it for you
Data as posted is assumed in cols A and B, from row1 down, cheque#s in col A (with in-between blank cells), invoice#s in col B In C1: =A1 In C2: =IF(A2="",C1,A2) Copy C2 down to extent of data in col B Then in D1: =IF(B1="","",C1) Copy D1 down. Your desired results in col D. -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:19,500 Files:362 Subscribers:62 xdemechanik --- "indigo993" wrote: I would like to fill in the chq# in the column next to the invoice numbers.

I forgot to add one more piece of information to this question. Under the same columns as the chq #, there is also a vendor ID#. I want to only copy down in 'column C the chq #. Is this possible? 25246 (chq #) 8517 5650MAR1508MM need cheque # filled in this column 25247 8518 069 25248 8519 002956009059 8519 002956033059 8519 002957358059 8519 004640086041 8519 861-7022-MAR908 thanks "Max" wrote: One easy play which should deliver it for you Data as posted is assumed in cols A and B, from row1 down, cheque#s in col A (with in-between blank cells), invoice#s in col B In C1: =A1 In C2: =IF(A2="",C1,A2) Copy C2 down to extent of data in col B Then in D1: =IF(B1="","",C1) Copy D1 down.

Becoming tough ..
One possible play .. In C1: =IF(LEN(A1)<5,"",A1) Copy down. This presumes that cheque#s in col A will always be distinctly 5-digits or more, and that vendor ids (or what-have-you) will not exceed 4 digits/chars. If this is so, then col C will return only the cheque#s Then, essentially applying the earlier play using col C now as the reference (instead of col A) In D1: =C1 In D2: =IF(C2="",D1,C2) Copy D2 down In E1: =IF(B1="","",D1) Copy E1 down. Your desired results in col E. Press the Yes button below, wont you? -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:19,500 Files:362 Subscribers:62 xdemechanik --- "indigo993" wrote: I forgot to add one more piece of information to this question.
