compare 2 cells then copy value if they are different
I want to compare two cells, 1 contains an address, the other may or may not
contain data. If the 2nd cell is blank I want to copy the address from the 1st cell. Is there a formula to do this? |

If, in addition to what you have specified, when the 2nd cell is not blank
you want to use the value from the 2nd cell, then try =IF(B2="",A2,B2) or =IF(B2<"",B2,A2) -- David Biddulph "Gwen B" <Gwen wrote in message ...

it is not possible without an auxiliar column, assuming the formulas that
David sugest you but using it on column C. or you must to type a different formula in each cell to preserve original values on column B. hth -- regards from Brazil Thanks in advance for your feedback.
