Default Copying information down a row that changes after new entries

hi,

I have imported data into excel. The problem is I have multiple rows that
should a number, then the number changes to something else.

For example, the data is like this:
billy 000
blue
red
yellow

tom 001
orange
banana

I need the the 000 to go down the row to everything under Billy's name and
the 001 to go to everything by tom's name and so on.

Any help?

Billy and 000 are in different columns?

If yes, then selct the column with 000, 001...
Press F5
Click on Special
Click on BLANKS and click OK
Type
=B1
(assuming 000 is in B1)
and press CTRL-ENTER

If you have blank rows between the names in Column A
then filter Col A on blanks and clear Col B for those rows...
